I worked for a school system here in Carter County, Tennessee. We closed the old school because it got flooded. It was in 1998. That was 21 yrs ago, and the stuff was going to be thrown away. Ole' hoarder Dan (Me) took it home, and it has been in storage. I hated to see good stuff trashed. It didn't get wet in the flood..
