    I recall one of our members bringing up the feds removing them (CRT's) from the hazardous waste list.(google search it) No doubt they(CRT's)remain on many if not most of the states' hazardous waste list. It seems that the lead which is mixed with the glass ,not on the surface, does not easily leach out. I would think that the glass has little re-use purpose so it comes down to solid waste.



    My theory is that with this rather recent change by the feds charging for the recycling of CRT's may be soon over with.

    Recycling of the new tv's is well under way and falls into the same steams as computers. Mike
