Oh cool!!!!! Someone could rework them to be hanging lamps. I bet  
they could also be used as weather shields for antenna things.

Still, these things look way cool. it would be a shame to destroy  
them. On the other hand, the YF would not be too pleased if I came up  
with a batch of them to store in _my_ garage for that day when I  
start a lamp business (not!).
