Favorite possessions from defunct companies or products (.com or other):
I've got a mug from Webvan, the online grocery delivery company. Kind of a funky inverted cone shape.

I've also got one from "Nuromax", a drug called doxacurium. Sorry if any of you work for the company that produced Nuromax (Burroughs-Wellcome?), but I remember it as a drug that was looking for a use. One that it never really found. I don't know if anyone is still making it, I know that I haven't seen a vial of it in about a decade.

The Nuromax mug is cool though, it's got a logo of a male torso, showing the muscles and beating heart under the skin, with an EKG trace along the bottom, presumably symbolizing the lack of effects of Nuromax on the cardiovascular system. I don't use the drug, but I still use that mug a lot.

What are your favorite relics?
