What I learned at UBI

Thanks, Deb. I really appreciate your knowledgeable, not to mention fun and interesting, posts.

Thanks, Deb. I really appreciate your knowledgeable ....posts.

I second that all around.

I'm also still back at post #6, totally amazed that cows ingest that much metal or nails - to warrant a market that offers a selection of magnets for retrieval. And that there's enough for the farmer to reuse.

Hehe - I got to re-use this information, standing in a queue for a plane yesterday. Said to my boss (whom I adore btw) "did you know there's something called a cow magnet?" I even got into how I found out, via this forum, Deb, and ball bearings.

See - this forum is even improving my smalltalk

LOL! I got to accuse DH of having Hardware Disease when he was deeply ensconced with a (very helpful) salesperson at Home Depot yesterday


And yes, +1 Deb, thanks for being here - working to increase your expertise - and helping us all out!

Oh, by the way, I use one of those telescoping magnets to remove bearings. And then just extend and swoop it under the bench if they fall on the floor. Might be good for those of us with bad backs or knees. But I like the "idea" of the cow magnets much better.
