the magnet mod is for temporary placement, not permanent...would you really trust a magnet at 80-100mph on the freeway?

i've heard they come from the innermost section of the mantle, billions of miles beneath the earth's surface. little miniature (yes, miniature) trolls dig down there with special equipment developed by the russian government. they find these perfectly formed magnets and stick them in various crevices of their body, then they make their way back up towards the surface, where they are forced to sell the magnets to the russian government (since they contracted their digging equipment from them) for mere pennies. then the government takes them, cleans them up, and sells them on a website known as woodcraft.com, which is actually a laundering front. just what i've heard though, i can't verify that.
