    Got some good laughs here tonight yet seriously, For the bicycle riders out there use sections when you have your headset being rebuilt just before you put the fork and stem back on the fame take small pieces of tube to keep water out of the headset. Especially good for mountain bikers. I haven't done it yet myself but supposed to be an old mountain biker trick.

    So you think it would make a good soil retention device?

    You ever had a pocket knife, where the spring became worn, the blade kept dropping and then opened enough to stab you in the leg, or chest (pocket dependant)?

    Well fear not, inner tube to the rescue...

    Simple, but it works. Think the piece I had was inner tube from a racer originally. Also helps prevent the loss of the tooth pick and tweezers, by stopping things brushing against them and popping them out.
