[The Sighn]

    I can get all the copper I want from my employer (I asked 2-3 years
    ago BTW). I'm also an electrician so that can be a hefty ammount of
    copper. It's relatively easy to melt down and alloy to make bronze.
    that's saved me probably $1000 in casting grain so far. A few more
    years to the tens of thousands mark, but I'm on my way... 

    I propose that it *MAY* have been OK for those people to glean the
    platinum, at least until the manager finds out how much they have
    accumulated over the years. =) A lot of the time this kind stuff
    goes to the garbage, because "It's Junk. Why Would I keep that?*"
    (*note the silver pipe fro earlier) 

    The uneducated can shure do a lot of damage (to the bottom line =) 

    As far as I know, removing items stuff from the trash is not
    stealing, in fact I think that is a protected right in the states... 

    Also, it is one of the ajor tennets of _RECYCLING_. =)
