What would be even cooler would be if the metal eaters
looked like the old half-jacked cars you see in a lot
of major US cities.  One of the big symbols of urban
blight is a car up on blocks in the middle of the
street or one with smashed windows and an eviscerated
dashboard.  It would be spooky to walk down a street
one day and see one of these things, but see two right
next to eachother when you walk the other way.  You
just get this sense that they're growing.
