treehugger contest!

i'm a faithful treehugger reader and just got an email reminding me about their great contest going on right now. details:

"there are some things that just seem to last forever. perhaps it is constant maintenance and repair, good product construction, or possibly just luck. whatever the case, these things are rare, and should be recognized. not only do they ease our burdens ecologically and financially, they often have character that no new product could obtain. we would like to see your "old faithful". send us a picture and short description of the thing you have been able to maintain through the years (and plan on keeping for many more) by friday, cctober 21st. email us at: contest [at] treehugger [dot] com and tell us why your "old faithful" is still going strong.

such a great idea. hope some of you can enter!
