Several years ago I was working a trade show in Amsterdam and
took the train into town from Zaanstad each day. On day one a
car appeared at a dead-end road next to the tracks. That
afternoon the tires were gone. The next morning the doors were
gone. That afternoon the hood and trunklid (bonnets) were gone.
The next morning the engine and entire interior was gone. That
afternoon nothing was left but a shell--everything was gone.
Next morning it was no longer white but a smoldering hulk.
The next morning the hulk was gone and a new car appeared--minus
the tires...
