    Don't forget computer shops to go see. The first one gave me attitude about the recycling like I don't know what I'm doing and "their state licensed" which I checked and we don't need a license to do this. Two more shops after that are paying to have their junk/scrap hauled away(and were happy we came to see them). So you just don't know,,,

    PS; Ocedy Welcome back and hang in there,,,
