I once was blind and now I see......

I have to admit I over looked this area due to endless searching and reading of this site!! This is awesome and full of info beyond belief!! Anyhoo I'd like to say hello, as I'm a newbie to the sight, but not to scrap. I currently scrap a lot of computers and electronics, from clients that call on a regular basis. I agree with the "Irrationalist" and dismantle everything as the pay is much better. After being laid off from 23 years in the earth moving business, I decided a year ago to go full blown. Although I work a part time job (20 hrs per week) I am scrapping at least 40 hours a week and the business contacts are growing bigger every month!! I LOVE E-SCRAP!!!!! See you all around the shrapnel pile!!!!!................
