Right!...Management is run by governing laws of 100+ years ago, that are
interpreted to date and enforced by crazy people....

	That's disgusting, unless the product was defunct to the core,
therefore not feasibly reparable by anyone.

IE:
	A lot of ppl still repair CRT monitors, but mostly if there is a
missing color, and a transistor is replaced...a bit of work, but cost about
$2. Plasma screens are irreparable low on energy but 10X the price of a CRT
monitor.......this "war" has been going on for about 25 years.... 

	A lot of "recycling" centers around the world check to see if a
possibly of resurrection is possible, otherwise they tear down and recycle
the status of raw element.
