All, I feel that we need to reach a consensus on how sanitary these boxes should be. Obviously, fingerprint oils and minor dirt and such should be expected. But suppose someone were to receive a box with, say, moldy bricks? What should that someone (...) (25 years ago, 31-Aug-99, to lugnet.market.jambalaya)

I must be a little confused here. Are there 2 Technic boxes floating around? Did I miss something?

(...) I thought that was clay. That was on those cogs when they were donated by Todd. If you think you can get it off without distorting the plastic, it would be worth a try. I just happen to be allergic to most forms of mold and (...) (25 years ago, 31-Aug-99, to lugnet.market.jambalaya)

(...) Well, the itching hands, nose and eyes were a good indicator, but what really tipped me off was the yellow spores poking out of the green lump. (...)
