You would not *believe* the stuff that gets chucked out in Military
scrapyards. I was just in the Disposal yard of Malmstrom AFB in
Great Falls, Montana and they had *tons* of electronic consoles
and radar/guidance gear just lying out in the snow ready for a visit
from a bucket shovel.

Where does the TK get fuel? We bought 121 jeeps from the AFB
scrapyard, and each had 5-15 gallons of fuel inside. I'd assume
the Kat-guys would have access to at least similar amounts - they work
for the Government still - even if their new vocation is junkpatrol.

Twice, I think. Once at the end of the first season with "Katastrophe" and once
before in, what, "Enter the Madkat" maybe? Someone correct me - I haven't got
time to go check!
