Is there a way to dispose of CDs/DVDs (ones that are bad) other than tossing them in the trash that might be a little environmentally friendlier?

:cool:

Well, I already have way too many CD coasters from way back in 1998 when I got my first CD writer (the software was really lame and caused a lot of misburned CDs)... just looking for a creative and environmentally friendly way to dispose of these left over discs :)

It's nice to see someone caring about the environment. Use them as coasters and/or make some funky art. :D

Um, dude, they're called "coasters" for a reason.

*notes presence of three such items on his desk, all under cups/glasses*

They make great targets, they shatter nicely when you shoot them. Take them out to the desert/country, tack them to a fence post and blast away.

I like to burn them until they bubble, then I throw them away. I know it stinks and does not really save the enviroment, but at least I get entertainment out of them before they get tossed.
