As much stuff as I have, I do still regret abandoning a few things when I left Florida in 2004, like 2 large laser power supplies that might've worked but more importantly had several hundred really good HV caps in them, among other parts. And a couple of large stainless steel sheets, some other things. Oh, well. I am looking at selling off some nuke stuff that I have multiples of. Organization, well...
