What I don't grasp...is how do perfectly Good marbles end up in the
trash (we dig up)?  Did parents throw them out so kids wouldn't play
(gamble) with them?  I know...usually we only find a few, not a whole
bag full, but still...I don't throw out anything that still has a use.
But um, I know I'm an exception...


And I cant understand how they get in the middle of a padock, miles from any residence. - lost during a quuick game while taking a short cut to the swimming hole, - thrown from the back of a tractor, - kicked around for ages by cows????
