I have always wanted to do this, "donate" and send Dave Antistatic wrist straps!
I would love to see him open a box of 1000 of them straight from Shenzhen factories!
Come along and help me send them!

It's only pointless if you don't also fill the package with glitter

Maybe that already happened and that's why there was no mailbag this week :)

But the general idea is not so bad, I think: But instead of just the wrist-straps, they should be used as padding for some other stuff, so there's a fair amount of digging through those required before reaching some beautiful piece of equipment. :D (Damn! Now I ruined the surprise!^^)

Huh? He's already been receiving antistatic bands for the whole of last year and (naturally) grown very tired of it. Don't you watch the videos?

Why?
What an amazingly pointless idea. Find a local charity and donate a few dollars to it.
