When I was working part-time for the Carmel parks I would drive by a farm that sold eggs. Many times I had a co-worker with me, a younger woman in her late 30's. I would stop and get 2 dozen eggs then put them in the back seat for the rest of the day she thought I was crazy for not putting them...

Even back in the 1970 and on black was not easy to find, rules for storing was reason. Wal-Mart and Kmart would put T-7 and Pyrodex on clearance in January, sometimes 2/3 off. Bought it all. Still got several cans left and using it, works just fine.
