It probably sounds more interesting than it is... I don't remember how I came across his experiment - probably slashdot, maybe Digg.

Anyhow - I loved the idea, so I emailed him, told him where I was living and some ideas about what I could offer in trade. He responded saying he was pretty far from where I was, but maybe I had something nicer than might sweeten the deal. We traded a few more emails, but in the end, whatever I was willing to part with wasn't enough to make him drive over a thousand miles to trade. I think his next trade up was the generator.
