AHAHAHAHAHA I'm dead. I have no words. Except a question I do have. WHY do Random House make their books un-recyclabe with all the environmental crises we have already??

There's something a bit fishy about that book fortress.

If the glue in the binding is the only problem, a volunteer with a box cutting knife could at least recycle a lot of the material.

(she says, as someone who recycles the guts of abandoned student lab notebooks.)

But they are recyclable - you can recycle ideas from their books!

O, jkjk, bad joke...)

It seems reasonable, but maybe they are lazy, or maybe there is some faint hope that they can sell them all.

Well--not lazy, per se; it's (slightly-dangerous) work to cut pages out of books, and it's not work that would make the charity money, either. I can see why they haven't yet; it'd be a last resort.
