I found the envelopes easily at the post office and will use them to mail in my empty ink cartridges that have been collecting dust on my bookshelf. I also tried the free tools from ReCellular to erase my old cell phone info but still couldn't complete it because I didn't have the correct unlocking code. Oh well. ** Update: The Sprint Service Center on 330 Commerce Dr., Irvine, was able to erase the data from my old Sprint cell phones. Further questions re: recycling: Is there any recycle disposal for old VCR tapes? Perhaps the tapes or the plastic casing are recyclable? What about DVD disks? **Update: thanks for the referral to GreenDisk, although it would be nice if there was a more convenient drop off location for electronic media.
