My dad grew up in a really old house. One year he and his dad redid a room and took all the nuts left by squirrels out of an exterior wall. The room was then much colder in the winter.

When I first got out of high school my first job was hanging drywall. Only did it for a few months. It was a lousy job with a lousy lifestyle. I'd swear 90% of low-level workers in construction are alcoholics and do drink on the job when the bosses aren't around. And sometimes when they are. But nevertheless there was an interesting aspect to the job I could have never foreseen. At any big job site, there would be numerous people drinking beer while working and they would always bring the empty bottles to the drywall guys. Why? So we could put the empties in the wall and then hang a sheet of drywall over it. I can't tell you how many apartment complexes in this city have empty beer bottles in their walls.

Yup.  Super common to find beer or soda cans, food wrappers, magazines and general jobsite trash that the sheetrockers or some other trade didnt feel like cleaning up so they just stuffed it in a wall or a ceiling.  Back east we would find at least some manner of trash in probably half the ceilings we opened.

I found a program from Fenway Park's 1934 opening day when I replaced my downstairs windows, put there by the original builders; Coolest thing ever.  What did this guy-- oh.  Oh damn that sucks lol.

As someone else noted above: WHAT HAPPENED TO THE ACORNS?

Hopefully they were returned to the yard or whatever so they could be gathered by various wildlife.

A friend of mine moved a large book case and dislodged at least two bags worth of dog kibble a mouse had stored. Then he knew why he seemed to go through dog food so fast.

Legit answer? Probably close to 1-1.5/inch similar to softwood, so not a lot, but that wall would had an R value of 5-7.

An old school chum was a welder on the Seabrook, N.H. nucular power plant back in the 70's.  Same thing.

When I did some drywall repair on my house, built in 1969, I found someone's Lunch.

When they cut a section through the wall of the reactor containment vessel on the NS Savannah, they found that part of the nuclear shielding was crushed beer cans.
