Did you lose your Doug Ritter folder in M4 steel at Burning Man this year? A gentleman who found the knife laying on the ground has contacted me trying to unite the found knife with its rightful owner. Kudos to him. We aren't sure if we have those records from back then, and it will take a while to dig them out to see if we do. In the meantime, identify the knife by size (Full-size or Mini) and serial number and we can re-unite you with your knife.

Wow! Hats off to the good sanitarian.

... and yet another reason to buy a Ritter knife. ;-)

When and where you least expect it, some human steps up and does a purely decent, selfless thing. If others foolishly emulate this example, civilization as we know it will be doomed.

BTW - good sanitarian? Nice.

I actually thought it might have been on purpose, because it fits the situation perfectly. So you get the bonus points regardless. cool

Agree regarding Android autocorrect. For every thumbstroke it saves, it generates enough flaming carnage to herald the end of the world. Perhaps they ported the code from the old Apple Newton?

So, is a sanitarian someone who believes in or practices sanity?

Actually, no joke, it's someone who practices sanitation in the context of food safety.
