I think Ethan meant *all* scrap including old machine tools, obsolete work
fixtures, metal chips from the machine shop, office furniture, scrap paper,
inventory excess including extra light bulbs, screws, etc., general junk
that's not tossed into the landfill dumpster, not to mention widgets,
wonkers and willies. A scrap contract may possibly not even _have_ computer
goodies in that particular batch (though there may be _something_ as such
from a 22-football-field plant.)

I thought of a co-op thing too Mike. But I beat you to it with regard to
