"If there’s a world here in a hundred years, it’s going to be saved by tens of millions of little things. The powers-that-be can break up any big thing they want. They can corrupt it or co-opt it from the inside, or they can attack it from the outside. But what are they going to do about 10 million little things? They break up two of them, and three more like them spring up!"

Turn in a wad of found cash

The project:
Pick up a wad of lost I spotted in a parking lot.

Time:
Moments

Why bother?
If I'd dropped MY wad of cash, I sure hope someone would turn it in. I handed it to the owner of the business (a 5-acre lavender farm outside of town), who was able to identify which customer lost it.

Worth it?
Yes. The woman thanked me for turning in the cash, as did her friend.
