I have a friend who grew up on a farm in Indiana. Once when he was a young boy, for some strange reason he decided to dump an entire can of oil based enamel paint into his uncle's tractor's engine. Retelling the story, he states that at first he was fascinated with the process of just watching this stuff that he knew he shouldn't have been messing around with disappearing into the engine. There was a type of thrill that sort of went with it. In the middle of the process, he suddenly was overcome by a sense that maybe he shouldn't be doing what he was doing, but he kept doing it anyway, not sure why. The paint ran out, and soon the deed was done. Then what? He had an idea that what he had done would be bad for the engine, and planting time was coming. His uncle was not a rich man. This could ve VERY BAD! So what did he do? He did what many of us might do in a situation like that. He didn't do anything, just kept his mouth shut and hoped it was all just a bad dream. It was not a bad dream. The engine basically was destroyed, new parts needed to be ordered and there was a severe financial stress put on his whole family. Yes, also he got "the whipping of my life." But I can understand why he did what he did. Unfortunately, I think there are a lot of shorts out there who are kind of trying to forget what they did. You might say, "These are adults. They don't think like that. They know it won't just go away." To that I say...This is not rational what they are doing. It is based on fear and panic. I feel badly for these guys, even though I was one of the people they were trying to screw over. I still feel badly for them. The enamel is in the engine and it's hardening more every minute. Planting time is approaching, and the farmer is about to turn the key. SB
