DIY: how to remove scratches from hardwood floors

i realize this is completely and utterly random, but i have to share this with you.
walnuts. 
they are the secret to removing/buffing out scratches in hardwood floors!
witness the before and after:
oh yeah!  all you have to do is rub a walnut all over it.  apparently the natural oils in the nut will buff out the scratch.  (it worked well enough to please our landlord when we moved)
