My suggestion to anyone that still handles CRTs are to either recycle them correctly or don't b*tch about it. It's one of many topics I've stopped talking about because they've been ran into the ground like a Commodore computer.
    I see where you are coming from and understand you reasoning and commend you for being one of those who attempted to help solve the problem. Maybe this is the time to talk about a dirty big secret and find a real solution other then the usual government solution of throwing out restrictive, useless laws or regulation.



    Lead is at a dollar a pound how much lead is in a crt and how hard can it be to find an economical , safe way to recover it.

    It can't be any harder or more expensive then starting a new lead mining project. Lead is here it's time to find a way to deal with it instead avoiding the issue and using regulation to sweep it under the rug. mcw
