[GreenYes] Re: Circuit boards

[Anne Peters <annep@no.address>]

Jerry is too modest to say but his company organizes the premier 
conference to attend in this field.
The E-Scrap 2006 Conference would be useful to attend if you wish to 
market your product in the U.S.  It is held this October in Austin, 
Texas. Businesses who may be interested in your technology likely will 
attend and you can learn more about regulations there too. Go to 
http://www.resource-recycling.com/esn.html to learn more about the 
conference and the magazine you can subscribe to.

Good luck,
