Being charitable isn't about fobbing off defective crap on children.

(that's what toy stores do).


A local scout troop rebuilt a 38 foot sailboat. An A scow, all of
which were used and wood at the time. Since then the scows are back in

production and in fiberglass, but at the time all the available A
boats were used, wood, and falling apart. They had been out of
production for ten years or so.
