Sooner or later they all disappear, generally when the can is only half empty. I wouldn't go so far as to attribute purpose to plastic tubing, but it's plenty damn suspicious... -- Cheers, Bev ======================================================================= "Lord, grant me the serenity to accept the things that I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to hide the bodies of the people who pissed me off."

Yeah, I save every spray-can straw I ever see- my toolbox never has more than two, and usually none. And that's from saving the straws from WD40, brake cleaner, carb cleaner, and chain-lube. Dave
