I'm glad someone else noticed this. I left one out in the sun on the deck.
There was a hail storm. My car was outside, my truck, some plastic plant
pots and that Sterlite container. The car and truck were fine--not a ding.
The Sterlite container and one of the pots just...*exploded*. I'm still
finding particles of the Sterlite under the deck. Dangest thing I've ever
seen.
