I just heard the last part of the story on accumulation of too much stuff.  I don't have a psychological solution for the woman with hundreds of unused bras, but I do have a practical one.  I work for a non-profit organization called Dress for Success Oregon.  We provide resources, including professional attire, to disadvantaged women who are trying to enter the workforce.  We can't take used undergarments, but all the new bras (with tags attached) can be donated to Dress for Success and she can take a tax deduction for her donation.  She can go to our website: www.dressforsuccess.org/oregon to get more information.  Thanks for this show.  Lots of people have too much stuff and conversely, lots of people have too little.  Let's get these people together!  Stephanie
