I took it to mean that the items were stolen at first, but if they were removed and not returned.....well, it would be bad. I had a kid whom I grew up with who worked for United in St. Louis and was busted for stealing things out of checked luggage...Rolex watches, currency, etc. And I believe there is a place that is full of stuff, the unclaimed baggage center in Alabama... � Troy [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.geocities.com/tcallgood/index.html � "Not many of us shoot ourselves during the evening hatch"� �Jim Harrison ----- Original Message ----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, June 24, 2003 10:14 AM Subject: Re: [VFB] 2 piece vs. 4 [or more] piece rods In a message dated 6/24/2003 10:47:03 AM Eastern Standard Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: >� I had a set of Zeiss binoculars, a Mont Blanc Pen and a camera taken out of my checked baggage coming home from CA last > year.
