Just for the record, "recycling" and "reuse" are very different concepts.
They are often misused, and confused,  in professional and popular
literature, but we're better off in the long run if are clear on which
we mean.

A _rough_ analogy to this is the difference between "staying healthy"
and "getting sick then getting treated for it and getting better".
(ok, thats perhaps stretching the point, but it is illustrative).
