I work in a carpeted area, and if I drop a tiny washer or something, I'll
have a very hard time finding it again.  I just discovered (after being so
splendidly stupid as to drop a washer I needed) that patting the rug in the
general area causes the little parts to dance around, catch the light and
catch your eye.
