    I let my guard down, missed that one, which asked which country had the best restrictions on export(hint: usa has nothing to do with it ; )

    I think that's from a Jan 2008 magazine too ; ) if you'll look at the addy

    I missed one but they said I needed "a few more correct clicks to be an ewaste expert". A few more?
    People may laugh at me, but that's ok. I laugh all the way to the bank.

    7/10 it's back to school (SMF boards for me) They made a good point in one question most companies don't recycle computers because of data security.
    It seems like offering onsite hard drive destruction could close more deals.

    Got 7 out of 10.

    I'm surprised you found this quiz Greg...it must have been sandwiched between the stories containing topless African Nubian queens and Carnival in Rio

    It wouldn't let me take the test, every time I tried this kept popping up..



    Sirscrapalot - If I was a wise man on a mt. top I'd throw snowballs an rocks at the people climbing up. If you can dodge all that, then maybe your worthy to hear the words of awesomeness that spill forth. An if not..hey, wise men sitting on mountains need amusement to.
