Re: [PLUG] OT: Montco, PA area electronic recycling - this Saturday

["K.S. Bhaskar" <ksbhaskar@gmail.com>]

Thanks for bringing this to my attention, Michael.

I went over with a trunk load of electronics, including a prehistoric
PC, monitor, audio and video gear accumulated through the years, etc.
There were clear signs on Highland Ave.  There was traffic backed up
onto the street, but it moved smoothly if slowly - drivers courteously
interleaving cars making left and right turns into the driveway.
Inside, they were well organized, asking drivers what they had and
directing them to appropriate lanes.  When I made it to the front,
they quickly emptied my trunk.  From the time I joined the traffic on
the street to the time I pulled out was about 40 minutes.  I was
impressed with the efficiency and organization.

Regards
-- Bhaskar
