a friend of mine wanted to sell a water heater. He explained to the buyer that it had a problem and should be seen by a repairman. The buyer agreed, paid the price, and loaded the heater into his truck. My friend then had doubts: what if the buyer never fixed the heater properly? Would it be unsafe? He chased the buyer down the road, thrust the money back at him, and --- to the protestations of the buyer -- pulled the heater down to throw it away.
