<p>[QUOTE=&quot;derkerlegand, post: 2158798, member: 73606&quot;]I remember the penny in the fuse box trick. It was always just a temporary fix until you could get to the store for another fuse. Very dangerous, I wonder how many houses burned like that? </p><p><br /></p><p>My father was brought up in a coastal town in Texas. He told me that back then (1930s) people would bore a hole in the stern of boats, insert a coin, and putty it up and paint it to disguise the spot. If there was ever any dispute about the owner ship of the boat, You could say what the date of the coin was and dig it out to prove it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
