anode out?
Does anyone just leave their anode out? It seems like it would be better not to have that thing disintegrating in the tank.

The obvious answer is leave it in. That's what keeps the water in.
You would need another type of plug but it wouldn't protect the tank. How much does a new water heater cost? Far more than replacing an anode rod every few years I'm thinking.
