Help getting new TV in future

More likely, tho' we'll need to consign them to hazardous waste brokers, and that won't be cheap...! (I like how the Capitol 1 vikings handle it...!)

Fortunately many of the 2009 models promise to be "greener" and not use mercury and other junk like that. Unfortunately, I'm sure the "hazardous waste" fee currently tacked on to the retail price of TVs sold in-state (esp. in Calif.) won't go away any time soon. :rolleyes:

I suspect less than 20% of hazerdous waste is disposed of properly. How many folks collect old batteries, inkjet cartridges, even aerosol cans and take them to a collection point, vs just tossing in the trash? The fee is for thoeretically dealing with this stuff, but I doubt that we are making any significant progress.

The mafia is suggested to be the largest disposer of toxic waste in the US.... I am sure of course that the Mafia takes every precaution and follows the law exactly. :eek:
