Subject: [Leica] The Wash House Laundromat #2

Thieves would think the machines are full of coins. Most laundromats here
have coin-operated machines that take quarters, and some take paper money.
I imagine the managers empty the machines each night and take the money to
the bank, but most criminals aren't smart enough to know that.
