Though we say we collect, many of us realize that we also accumulate - or in many cases HOARD - stuff. (I'm not quite to the hoard stage but certainly well above "accumulate").  This article in today's Wall St. Journal shows the effect on family and home life and some of you might find "interesting" so I'm sharing it. (then again, if you are a serious hoarder you will probably think it's useless <g>).
 
When Hoarders Make Life Miserable for Others - WSJ.com 
 
Today's article refers to an earlier one, which I had not previously read but I'll reference here:
 
Compulsive Hoarding Affects up to 2% of the Population - WSJ.com 
 
There's a reality show on about Hoarding but it's on cable (which I don't get) so I've not seen it.
 
Anyway, I thought this was worth sharing as my guess is that MOST of those on this list are, in some way, "hoarders". And no, I on't want to start a thread of humor here. If the subject doesn't appeal to you, just hit delete ;-)
