At the same flea, outside in the lot after the rain had stopped, I saw a kid, maybe 10 years old in a cowboy hat. He found a roughly 1950s Gilbert chemistry in near perfect condition with, as the kid put ir, "with chemicals and glass test tubes". I've never seen a kid so happy. The seller wanted $10 and the kid bought it. A few minutes later, I saw the same kid looking very glum. I asked what was wrong and he said his dad had made him return the chemistry set... it was "too dangerous". THAT is what's wrong with America today, IMO.
