[nfb-talk] To Be or Not to Be, Irritated

[Kenneth Chrane]

BISM just started their recycling program.
Let me give you my work number at BISM so if any one wants to recycle their 
old computers you may give me a call.
(410) 737-2656.
I am there, Monday through Friday 10 AM to 3:30 PM.

I call people every day so they can bring their old equipment to be 
recycled.
