    Look, I don't know what quantity it is found in these electronics, I just know what we were told.

    Very interesting info, thanks for sharing. Yards around here don't take electronics of any sort with the light iron pile (shred/tin/etc) but I thought the main reason was because of the capacitors on the boards and/or other hazardous materials. I definitely didn't realize arsenic was in electronics, not to mention all the other stuff.
