that's a nice story - I do quite a bit of that sort of exploration,
never found anywhere with computers left inside though! Generally the
land's at such a premium over here that places don't stay abandoned for
long, and the scrappers seem to move in minutes after a place closes
down and remove all the interesting interior stuff.
