I had a search and found Pulmotors were used from 1907 up to the 1940's, but I couldn't find any puzzle editors injured by elephants in that time frame.

In fact as far as I can tell the internet doesn't seem to think elephants and puzzle editors have ever interacted in anyway at all!

If this article is to be believed that's probably for the best.

It's not good to keep it bottled up inside.

Keep the bottles outside, ideally to mark your property line.

Isn’t that less “stolen” and more “destroyed by an angry scam victim with heavy equipment lashing out at an innocent third party”?

e: Wait no they were actually contracted to remove a perfectly good (?) driveway.

Still not really theft.

I'm 50/50 on whether I would call it theft. It certainly wasn't removed so it could be used, but if someone takes your bike and throws it into a river I'd still say it was stolen.

Yeah but if they thought that they were in the employ of the bike’s owner, it wouldn’t be theft.

I think you're conflating *committing* and *being guilty of the crime of* theft. In terms of destruction of property, if I contract a company to destroy my neighbor's fence, they are the ones who destroyed it but I am the one guilty of a crime. So long as I sufficiently misrepresented the situation and they had a genuine belief that I was truthful the contractor is scot-free.

Even the idea that "you wouldn't steal a car" is suspect. There's an entire multi-billion dollar video game franchise premised on how fun it is to steal cars! It's one of the coolest crimes imaginable!

The act of driving around in a stolen car is literally called "joy riding". What other crime has "Joy" litreally in it's name? None I tell ya, none other crimes!

It's more akin to just hacksawing your bike to pieces. Nobody left the property with a useable driveway in their possession.

Oh yeah, like it's not their fault. I guess you could blame them a little for not looking at all into whether the person contracting them actually owned the property but it's not like any contractor I've worked with has asked me to prove I own the house.

I was just talking about whether the word "stolen" was appropriate, not guilt. Like instinctually I would say "how can you steal a driveway" but if it was a bike or whatever that was destroyed (even if the person who did it was tricked into it) I'd probably still say it was stolen.
