  1. This I received from a trusted source:

    "curits, i listened to the part of the meeting about the recycling with the howard center. while ben is correct on the so called bottom line cost, the reason is the product sold is worth more right now. the actual cost is rising for recycling at the howard center just being offset with sales. wish this was explained at that meeting.
