  1. Anybody know about eco-friendly disposal of mercury batteries. Can I mail one somewhere?

    I just revived my long-dormant Avocet 45 cyclocomputer, it contained an old
    #675 mercury battery, the type no longer sold in the US.

    If I'm not mistaken, you can just take them to a Radio Shack.

  3. Very good, thank you. I see on their web site, "Don't forget! Recycle used batteries at your local
    RadioShack!" And a link to the Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation rbrc.orgrbrc.org

    I always bury them by the back fence where I dump the gasoline used in chain-cleaning.
