   Hi everyone,

   Is there a better method of vacuuming items like books and electronics? I tried vacuuming a bunch of paperwork this morning but it's painful... do you have to go page by page? I have quite a lot of books and docs that I need to keep but can't put into storage...

   I didn't try to vacuum every book, but opted instead for the bake-in-car method. I don't have complete confidence in this method, but I did verify that the temperature in the car was between 120F and 130F for a good four hours or so. These books are still in bags two months later. If it was a book I needed access to, I'm not sure what I would do. Spray the guest bathtub with Suspend (or something with residual effect) and let it dry. Stand the books up in the tub and hope they come out looking for me?

   I made that up. I have no idea how long the BBs would just stay tucked away in their safe little spot in the bindings.
