I like to scratch off my address and the bar code, then put them back in the mailbox. Imagine if everybody did that....

Benji, America OnLine sends out millions of discs of their software to everyone here in the states, I get at least 1 a month. As Floop points out, they usually come in a metal box. The resources needlessly wasted to produce and distribute these is mind-boggling...

Apl - So, you stopped doing that after blowing up how many microwaves?? That's hilarious..

i don't know what AOL mailings are, but cd's are really nasty as attack frisbies.
you can really get some awesome purchase on themn resulting in some very very nasty bruises.

Oh, um, now I just put them in a drawer.

I guess I figure I'll do something with them someday.

I did this a couple of times.

Earthlink and AOL discs.

I was really bored at work, started reading on Tesla and found a link to a whole heap o' sites dedicated to destroying CDs.

I think that this may be the site: http://raptor.physics.wisc.edu/wacky/cd/

cd's are surprisingly durable. They can sometimes play with huge scratches, (purposefully gouged out) or even cracked. You can immerse them in water, too. Much more durable than tapes.

Whoa... never thought of microwaving a CD. Sounds fun.

I once threw one across a parking lot like frisbee.

We used to put them in the microwave and make nicely fractal-patterned coasters. Now I just break them and throw them away.
