    Acolyte
   "For men will be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, arrogant, revilers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, unholy, unloving, irreconcilable, malicious gossips, without self-control, brutal, haters of good, treacherous, reckless, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, holding to a form of godliness, although they have denied its power; Avoid such men as these. For among them are those who enter into households and captivate weak women weighed down with sins, led on by various impulses, always learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth." ~ Paul the Apostle

   Tomatoes are the best thing to grow. They cost as much per kg in the supermarket as meat does.

   You said, "youd need around 50 phones to get a kg of smartphone PCBs which still contain lots of iron shieldings. so a tone would be like 50,000 smartphones", but that's not true. In very rough numbers, there are 10 troy ounces of gold (or about three-fifths of a pound) per ton of smartphones. Ten thousand phones weigh one ton. [With gold selling for about $1,580 per ounce, that would yield $15,800.

   I've seen a million smart phones, and I've loved them all.

   anyway assuming that what he said is true, and assuming that he meant the PCB of these smartphones [since 95% of smartphones are just plastics and glasses and aluminum] which weight only like 20-30grams,
   
   youd need around 50 phones to get a kg of smartphone PCBs which still contain lots of iron shieldings. so a tone would be like 50,000 smartphones.

   
   In any case, not bad for something you're getting for 100% free.

    You could buy this kit that came in a box like a puzzle would, and all the pieces were in there. At five years old I was listening in on the invisible midnight conversations. I was there when it all started.
