The evening before this pile of equipment was removed to parts unknown, my wife and I happened to be walking by and heard what we thought was a sound coming from inside the mill. We went back to the spot we heard it most strongly, and realized it was a high-pitched continuous "Beeeeeeeeeeeep" coming from somewhere in the middle of the pile of discarded computer equipment. Apparently something in there still had a living battery and was registering some sort of error message. This pathetic little piece of electronics had made a very accurate observation of the current state of affairs. Unfortunately, we were the only ones that heard it and didn't quite know how to respond. Hopefully the land fill will give the little fellow a respectful burial, as it was more astute in its perception than any of the civic bodies in Ypsilanti.
