All,<br>

Is there any interest in doing this as a group? Maybe in March or April.<br></blockquote><div><br>Interested? Hell yeah!

I really do have about 50 in-operative drives I need to destroy at<br>
some point. If 50 dixie cups of poor man's thermite can be had for<br>
$100 or less, I'd be curious to try it out. (fyi: P'tree Shredder<br>
will shred them for $7/ea. so $350 is my worst case cost.)<br></blockquote><div><br>Can we do it in an arranged-pattern burn for maximum art-coolness? A dual brick stack with a hard drive suspended between them so we can see the molten slag dropping from the top layer down to layers below. <br>

We'd need to find a large area of dirt where the fire department won't<br>
come shut us down I assume.<br></blockquote><div><br>Probably need to get this cleared with the fire dept in advance. Maybe get permission if it's presented as both geek and performance art. Eyedrum music background? <br>

Anyone else have a collection of drives they need to destroy?<br></blockquote><div>yep! <br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">

Is buying the chemicals going to put me on terrorist watch list?<br></blockquote><div>most likely :-( But it may be worth it :-)<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">
