Do you think that Seregil throwing up on "Teaching Atlas of Thoracic Radiography" is an editorial comment?

I've made nearly $1000 from selling weeded books since I started. It wouldn't replace a regular income, but it's nothing to sneeze at. I got $200 a little while ago for Transcranial Doppler Ultrasonography, which sounds pretty cool.

I've been working on one of those CD player/turntable/radio all-in-one things that I got through Freecycle at least a year ago. The function switch was flaky. When I got it apart, I found that the switch has like 16 itty-bitty solder points. Either finding a compatible switch and replacing in, or mapping the traces and soldering in a number of simpler replacement switches, seems like more work than is worthwhile for a relatively cheap piece of hardware.

I salvaged some boards and the CD laser and tossed the rest and can't help a nagging irrational feeling like I failed and have wasted material and am somehow a bad person for junking it. I silently apologized to the device for not fixing it as I rode with it down the elevator to the dumpsters.
