    Actually if you do a google search for palladium gold refining forum and organ, you can find a lot of good information about people scrapping and recovering palladium from organs. Some are better than others and there are different places you can recover the palladium from.

    At the heart of science is an essential balance between two seemingly contradictory attitudes--an openness to new ideas, no matter how bizarre or counterintuitive they may be, and the most ruthless skeptical scrutiny of all ideas, old and new. This is how deep truths are winnowed from deep nonsense. -- Carl Sagan

    Just happened across this link regarding precious metals in cell phones, including Palladium. Dated info and dated $$$ values, but it appears to be good info.
