    I might know of someone that can come get them off your hands if you're still giving them away. I'll check with a few sources I have and see if anyone is willing to come and get them from you, if...

    Since I refine keyboard mylars for the silver they contain, I know a little bit about the yields and so forth and what can reasonably be expected per lb.
