	Have you ever wondered where all of the pennies go to?  There
must have been billions of pennies produced in the last hundred years or
so.  I guess that a few get melted down, and some get run over by trains,
but how many pennies have you seen from 1952 lately?  I think that there
is either a penny graveyard somewhere where they go to die, or that aliens
have been stealing them to supplement their copper supplies.  There is no
way to lose all those pennies is there?
	Anybody else have any theories?  Maybe someone could look up some
numbers on penny production so we have a better idea of the problem.
