Last I heard the fence pliers got auctioned off at one of the Portland dinners and was never heard from again.

But I keep having this feeling that like an old twilight zone episode, they'll end up on Farmer's doorstep with an evil grin on its face.  O-:=

Didn’t they go overseas to New Zealand or somewhere at one point? I don’t know the full story of them. I remember the “boxes” that trekked across the US to Portland for Spencer. I was able to handle one of them and meet a few list members along the way. Never made it to Portland myself but I’d love to sit around a campfire and listen to the stories that were told.
