But seriously, I like my F.O.D. collection buckets theory. At McDonnell/Douglass (now Boeing) in Berkeley, MO I would see them everywhere a wing or a pylon was being assembled or repaired. Foreign Object Debris can be a death sentence for a pilot and a career ender for an assembler--so they're very serious about keeping track of it.
