But you're always welcome to email me!<BR/><BR/>And to prove how uninteresting I really am:<BR/>I think that certain kinds of batteries are pretty harmful if not taken care of properly or recycled (but then again, I also thought plastic was horrible so who knows). Carbon-zinc batteries ("heavy duty") are no longer very popular. As far as I know, alkaline, the most popular consumer small battery, are not so bad, but I know that up until recently they all had mercury in them, which I understand is bad for the environment. I'm also pretty sure that nickel (in the rechargeable batteries) is pretty damn bad. Lead-acid (like car batteries) I don't know... anyway, it was just a thought that came up in my mind... not really that important :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11630456.post-1124890499546378952005-08-24T08:34:00.000-05:002005-08-24T08:34:00.000-05:00Hey Yael.. good to see you are doing well and all ...Hey Yael.. good to see you are doing well and all that.. Do you have a blog? Would be great to hear firsthand how it really is to live where you live. Anyway, there is a whole movement for battery and computer parts recycling, although I know nothing about it. It seems that pc's and monitors and the batteries are really bad in landfills for whatever reason. <BR/><BR/>That doesn't apply to me since I never get rid of my old pc's. There is a virutal museam of stuff in my basement all the way back to my Vic-20. And the parts I do get rid of are in pc's that I've built and donated to friends.<BR/><BR/>As for batteries on their own, I nver actually wondered about them. Just thinking right now I wonder if they are bad for the environment. I mean they are just carbon and some acidic chemical right? I'm not sure acid is bad for landfills or not. My guess is that it helps break down othr trash.. but I guess it could pollute ground water. I really don't know...Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11990204805709725942noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11630456.post-1124878007545562362005-08-24T05:06:00.000-05:002005-08-24T05:06:00.000-05:00Hello!I lost track of where your blog was, after s...Hello!<BR/>I lost track of where your blog was, after so many moves, and now thanks to your post on Ryan's blog here I am.<BR/><BR/>I just wanted to say that this recycling issue is very interesting... and thanks for the good link (I was surprised especially that plastic recycling is not necessarily good for the environment).<BR/><BR/>Your post brought up a thought in my mind: Do you know what the importance of battery recycling is? I have a feeling that it is much more environmentally important than paper recycling and stuff, although it has gotten very little "marketing", or at least its implementation hasn't caught on. I haven't done any research on the issue, but maybe you ran across some info?<BR/>Just curious...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11630456.post-1124817342744588942005-08-23T12:15:00.000-05:002005-08-23T12:15:00.000-05:00You actually ride a bike??!!!
