At UND we had a shred day for all staff and students. They could bring
their personal record to work. Our disposal vendors would bring a truck
onsite. You know one of those, Enron you don't scare me machines, and shred

was the window in the side of the truck. One man put in two full handfuls
of credit cards. I thought we were going to have to get him room as he
watched them get shredded.
