OT - What to do with old CDs?
I have about adozen old CDs that I no longer need or want. Ican just toss them, but thought maybe someone here had come up with other uses, like making a weird wind chime or something.

ISTR reading about CDs being used as spacers between circular saw blades stored on a dowel, stacked on a wall. Blades don't contact each other. |

Is there a Freecycle where you live, or something similar. A mailing list where you give things away to people who want them. |

These CDs have technical information on them, not of any use to anyone except engineers, and really not even useful for them.

Do they eat at dawn too? Still, no direct sunlight. |

Do they eat at dawn too? Still, no direct sunlight. Lots of things reflect without scaring birds, but reflecting lets birds know a CD is present. Humans might not know flying saucers were present if the ETs didn't turn on their flashing lights. Humans aren't scared of flashing lights. They're scared of unidentified flying objects. Some people have no luck keeping deer away with CDs. I suppose they have to be hung where the deer will see them in the dark, and the location has to have enough wind to move them. I suppose the deer leave because it's an unidentified flying object. Humans also tend to get uneasy when they encounter a moving object they can't account for in the dark. |

Doesn't the FAA require that the ETs use flashing lights when over USA-governed territory? Humans aren't scared of flashing lights. They're scared of unidentified flying objects.

ET's are required to travel by UFO, but if they turn on identification lights and transponders as required, they're no longer unidentified flying objects. Any ET who doesn't want to end up at GTMO had better retain a good lawyer. I was not surprised to discover that the FAA's UFO regulations are under Section 8. |
