[pct-l] gram scales as home decor (was, you might be a thru hiker)

[mardav at charter.net (Marion Davison)]

Using gram scales as home decor reminds me of the day when the police 
officer gave us teachers a training talk about detecting drug use in our 
students.  He said, "if you go on a home visit and notice a gram scale 
in the person's house, you can be absolutely certain that person is a 
drug dealer."
I sat there in silence thinking about the two ohaus triple beam balance 
scales in my house, thinking to myself "or just maybe that person is a 
long distance hiker".
