i am vaguely intrigued by these as identified in teh times
"Discarded notes are rubbish to most people, but not for worldwide subscribers to Found, which reprints them. The magazines publisher, Davy Rothbart, gets bundles sent to his office in Michigan. Laura Kwerel, a radio producer in Washington, was overwhelmed after reading one issue. I realise now, she says, that there is more humanity in a discarded grocery list than in a thousand-page novel. Some people need to get out more. "

Someone has published a book with found lists and notes in, I saw it the other day.
I found one in Waitrose last week and read it, it made me think of Cod.
I put it back in case the person returned for it.
They needed lots of things from the healthfood shop inc
extra strength cod liver oil
but had really old persons hand writing so couldn't make out that much.
