What's the Best Way to Recycle Old Tech in the US?
Tim Danhamn writes "SmartPlanet.com, a green-focused Web site, has put up an article about the best way to recycle your old tech, including local recycling centers and reusing old technology in other ways. I'm about to upgrade to a new PC and I have a lot of old radios, MP3 players and other electronic goods lying around the house. The article though is mostly about solutions in the UK, so I want to know - what is the best way to recycle old tech in the US?"
Yo, Dan being Clever is a poor excuse for being Smart and Thrifty! Better yet Being Clever is even a poorer excuse for speaking for others! There is at least a gajillion uses old working tech can be put to use. As an Educator You should be a bit embarrassed that the Public, and in this case a taxpaying-somtimes-levie-yes-voting-public is forced to rely on your cleverness, when what we are paying you to do is teach! How about teaching basic Computer skills on an old P2? Bet alot of us learned how to compile a few lines of code on older boxes. Or Key-boarding? or Finances? or Civic-Responsablility with public funds. And I haven't even touched the myrid of possabllitys the Scince department could put a dummy box to use. Annyhoo... I have a few students of my own to teach, right now so I think Todays lesson will be in about greatfullness, Thriftiness, Stewardship, Analitical reading, and how to spot a whiny-I-need-better-tools-so-I-can-look-at-cool-flash-websites-public-facillitators. oh and if there is a grammer geek that I've some how offended, I was Taught at a public school where the Clever Head of Education was too bussy griping about not having the right tools to educate the youth with. And the Answer is 3 x the 18th letter in the alphabet, just ask Jack Johnson! IAWATFAL: I actualy Work and Think For A Living
