Thanks for those surprising statistics about aluminum! 

The landfill mining (for metals, etc.) program did not progress in New Jersey 
in the '80s because the mafia-controlled sanitation "lobby" nixed it. 
("Mafia" was the term used when my colleague, an Italian-American who brought the 
Austrians to New Jersey, told me the story.)
