Ship the CRT to Africa or China. Please include lighter fluid and some matches. They can somehow extract copper, but I don't know how.

i saw on tv how they do this. they actually melt the gold/lead/copper out in little puddles in their woks, no kidding. enjoy your sweet and sour next time!!!

If you're really looking to put it to use, I bet there's a non-profit somewhere nearby that would refurb what can be reused and recycle that which is unusable. Do a search for "computer recycling <your city>" and see what comes up.

Bury it somewhere and plant the seeds and hope for future archeologists.

Donate and it write off 100&#37; depreciation on your taxes.

Actually turn a monitor on and pour water on it. I've always wanted to do that but never had the opportunity. Film it and post it to youtube.

It works 1000x better if it is salt water. Or soapy water (which is basically just salt water).
