The internet as a force for GOOD?

[Avatard]

I am on a bass forum, and a metal guy had his bass stolen (a very unusual all carbon graphite "Buzzard" bass) when touring a European country. Some time later, this very unusual bass was spotted by a forum reader at a local luthier, who posted a picture of it, whereupon others identified it as the missing bass, and the instrument was returned to its rightful owner.
