I recently reroofed my house and now have approximately 500 sq ft (5500 lbs) of
old roofing tile.  The tile is fired clay with some mortar.  What can I do with
this stuff?  I'd prefer not to landfill it.  It's not hazardous by any means,
and should be stable. Anyone know of a way of reusing or recycling this
material?  I'll bet there is a lot of clay tile being sent to landfills in 
California!
