Finally!! Someone has accepted we are reducing waste while reusing and repairing these relics of Americana!! I had to read your post twice to figure out your point. Isn't the green saying"reduce, REUSE and recycle, " recycle should also mean giving an old set to someone who can use it instead of tossing it in the landfill.
