Monster Droppings??

How many of you find little black discs .75" diameter x 1/8" thick around your garage? For the last few years I have been finding these things and wondering where they come from. Well I just figured it out. It is the rubber isolation discs between the cooling fins of the motor. The rubber discs must shrink and harden over time and just fall out. Look in between the cooling fins and there they are just waiting to escape. I have a cup full of them just waiting till I found where they came from and hoping to collect the whole set. Just thought if any of you were going mad trying to figure out this mystery too, i would put your mind to rest.
Our monsters are marking their territory where ever we go.
