Bell & Howell (heathkit) TV

[Dave Edwards]

Check first.
My town has a junk yard.
When you drive in, the guy wants to see your license, and asks what you 
have.
There are dumpsters set up...one for metal, cardboard, household trash, tree 
cuttings/grass clippings,
batteries, etc. etc... One is for electronics...more of a skid because I 
think someone comes by and buys all the perfectly good computers, monitors, 
stereos and TV's   Anyway....big TV's can just be set down, say "good bye" 
and drive away!

....Dave
