"Being moved into a TVA facility on a trailer that has 100 wheels but is not attached to a truck, seems to be controlled by an operator with a remote control of some sort. Moved very slow, took about an hour to move about 500 feet and did not seem able to turn corners. Had a State Trooper escort."

Isn't #22 really valuable? Like used in perfumes and such.

Elnora, It's illegal to have ambergris in your possession the US. It's not used much any more because synthetics work just as well and are a lot cheaper and no whales are exploited.

I'm pretty sure #29 are firing bunkers for the next invasion from the North.
They also used to have firing ports in the billboards along the highways.

Trina, Why do you Europeans get you panties in such a twist just because we don't conform to YOUR way of thinking? Just because we have a different way of doing things! Oh no, you can't do it different than we do. The European way is the only way. Things have to be measured in tenths not twelveths! So, tell me, which two months do you leave off your calendars? Which two hours do you leave off your watch? And, yet, you have to rely on Americans to save your @$$ when someone else threatens you! Just wondering, what do you call that little thing that we call an inchworm? A 1.6mm worm?

#18 -- It's a FAKE security system. People see the "flash" and think they are on camera. I had one in my business back in the '80's; the exact model in the picture.

The answer for #11 wasn't an answer to the question. So yeah, it looks like a commercial food tray, but what is it doing imbedded into an elevator wall?

Cora,
Ha my thought initially but realized it is being used to cover a hole...(Probably a location for a control panel in a different situation), since it fits so well

Cora,
We have these in our elevators as well. There used to be a telephone mounted there to call the front desk in case the thing got stuck. Later they got obsolete because there had to be automated warning systems

This is part of the weather station system. There is also a wind speedometer above the plaque. And I confirm that the upper temperature is air temperature and the lower temperature is the road. Warnings, for example about black ice, are also displayed there

#23 Definitely not the one used in the Star Wars movies. And by the looks of it it is a bit small for being used as a light saber.
