The easiest way to stop that is to charge a $50 refundable deposit

tell you to screw off. (This is a Good Thing, BTW.

Good folks (who care for equipment well) immediately pay it and sign
the doc. Any friend who won't do that doesn't deserve to borrow your
equipment, period.

Either way, it saves your own arse...most of the time.


I think there is great merit to that plan.
Thanks, great idea.

One other concept is when to help people. I'll
step in and help after I've seen evidence that
the person did at least SOME THING to help
himself.
