Hey guys:
Just a reminder, while you are out doing last minute shopping at
Radio Shack and such places, take your old dead nicads back to the store
and see that they get properly recycled. Nicads are environmentally
nasty in landfills.
I realize that a lot of you don't use nicads any longer. You can
recycle your Nickle Metal Hydrides by sending them to me. I prefer an
Airtronics or JR connector.
Radio Shack doesn't recycle anymore, at least here. They just toss
them. Be certain to _ASK_ what they do with batteries turned-in.
I've found "The Sony Store" do recycle, as do battery specific outlets
(like "Total Battery").
I return _all_ my batteries, alkalines, Ni-Cd, and even Ni-MH.
The Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corperation (RBRC) can probably help
find a depot: http://www.rbrc.org/
