We have been converting some mains powered amps for local DC supply,
so I have a pile of about a dozen liddle baby mains psus sitting with
tears in their eyes. They are brand new and very good quality. This
particular amp is one that we use by the hundred in their mains
powered mode, and failures are almost zero. The transformer is quite
chunky, there's four little diodes as you'd expect, an electrolytic,
and a voltage regulator. Output will be around 150mA at 14.5VDC. To
remove them we had to drill out a rivet which means that a soldered
bridge will be needed at that point.

If anyone has a use for them let me know.

Thought that said Small PUSS free to a good home and thought about making
a Cats Whisker radio.

We live in a strange age. Later today I will put twenty brand new PSUs
in the recycle bin.

You might say, "So what?" but to someone like me, brought up in a
cardboard box, such waste seems like a mortal sin.

A lot of us probably feel the same way,It's why I have crate full of
wall warts, leads with Schuko plugs on and umpteen leads for
Audio,scart connections serial and parallel ports that have either
been superceded or were never required in the first place but packed
in with computers etc. I keep meaning to have a clear out.

But we are looking at it from an individuals or small business point
of view. large companies and goverment think nothing about chucking
good gear out when it suits them, and anyone who has worked on a
building site will know what brand new material gets chucked in skips
as the site is tidied up. This often includes power tools that my
father would have given his right arm for but are now so relatively
cheap that the contractors chuckem at the end of a job and buy new for
next one. Easier than cleaning and storing them especially if you are
from abroad and living ten to a bedsit.

Never mind. As long as you re-use enough plastic bags, all will be well
and the planet will be saved.

The religion of plasticbagism has developed a few inconsistencies that I
don't quite understand though. The Council has recently presented me
with a new recycling bin for food scraps, which has of course to be
lined with plastic bags. But not just any old plastic bags - they have
to be special ones and I have to *buy* them! The Council will probably
argue that they're saving money, but I don't think it really counts as
saving money on something if somebody else pays for it instead.

We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the
drugs began to take hold. I remember saying
something like:

That goes back a long way. My mate worked at the building of an oil
terminal up (very) north and he described what happened to much of the
earthmoving plant and vehicles that had come to the end of their useful
life for that site, and the cost of which had been amortised over the
contract.
They were driven to the bottom of a large hole and buried - many
hundreds of thousands of pounds worth, including several Land Rovers and
Land Cruisers just a year or two old. Mind you, the place cost many
millions and it was a drop in the bucket. I suppose the accountants
thought it would get too involved and messy selling the stuff off and it
was well removed from the mainland, so a major pita to ship stuff back.

the "plastic bags" that our council wants us to use are made of cellulose
and while that is a 'plastic' material is is made from vegetable matter and
not oil. It also decomposes very quickly. That's why you can't use any
old bag. We are also allowed to use newspaper.
