I'm curiuos. I've been reading here about what makes the cut and what doesn't but I've often been surprised by what's left behind. I saw that Matt left more than he took when he left his most recent dig in Thermos ® glass hell. I'm sure it's just because you know your bottles, you know what's common, and you have a pretty good idea of what you already have 20 of back at home.
My question is, what do you do with the ones that don't make the cut? Do you leave them sitting there on the surface for someone else to find, do you indulge in human nature and throw rocks at them until they are just a pile of antique glass (knowing that they are common and of no value), or do you carefully place them back in the bottom of the pit and fill it back in?
Also, do you leave them behind because you simply don't have the room for any more common bottles or because you're really only looking for the more desirable (valuable) examples?
