Another great rescue from the landfill. Can you imagine how many are going into the land fills world wide? :sad: And this one is now fully working. How cool is that? I'm calling "Pre Dibs" on everyone's cool boxes found from this day forward. :yes:

Absolutely true ! i think about it all the time and its sad,what happened to the new agreement by the worlds goverments a couple of years ago to recycle ? not much recycling going on from what i can see..
same goes for cars,they crush thousands of cars every year and just imagine the memories that they have,they were once belonged to a family and took them on many holidays,they are a personal thing,its sad because when the cars die,they take memories with them,its a horrible thought..

Anyhow,back on subject..This is my favorite type of story,saving a box when you know it was destined for the crusher,now its been saved and it will live on for at least another 20 or so years :-)
