[SML] Harness resale?

[Richard Niederberg]

Dear Alex,
I concur with Bill Sapsis for his reasons and more. Reuse it yourself or
permanently disable it. Don't even give it to a charity and take a
write-off. The risk is much too high. I makes a hungry Plaintiff's lawyer
salivate on the spot. Not me!
