You are fortunate indeed that the carpenters in your neighborhood
don't suffer from the dropsies. All the flats I've had over the last
20 years, admittedly not many, were caused by a nail or screw,
sometimes in the tread, somtimes in the sidewall.
While walking last night I picked up (with my hands, not my tires!) a
loose 2 1/2-in wood screw from a street just 1/4 mile from my house.
Some unknown beneficiary will thank me without knowing it, unless
that beneficiary is me in which case I'll knowlingly thank myself.
