Wouldn't the fumes from burning CD's be so toxic as to potentially cause irreparable harm, even death, to anyone trying to breathe near the bonfire?

I'm sorry, Jesus. Herewith my Perry Como and Pat Boone CD's that I may be forgiven.

This would have to take place in my home town, wouldn't it? Christ...

On behalf of all Virginians, I'm sorry that some of us are still inbred mouth-breathers.

You know, we haven't had a good public burning (the fire kind) of CDs in years. All this public outcry seems to result in little more than kids wanting to buy CDs even more. Hey, I think we've discovered the REAL reason record sales have dropped.

I bet that'll keep the kids from having sex and shooting each other

yes, this type of burn party is lame and offensive. But if it happens, please, somebody take a stack of al stewart discs and fling them in the bonfire.

"down with this sort of thing"

"careful now"

Does anyone else smell opportunity here? Buy 'em to burn 'em (for real.) This could save the music industry if people want to buy crates of 50 Cent and whoever else to make them into kindling. Someone should forward this to Doug Morris.

@loudersoft: I was thinking the same thing though. Honestly, would it be much of a loss though?

@BakerStreetSaxSolo: You win life.

If I lived there, I'd wait until the torches touched the CDs. Then, I'd call the police to report an illegal burning of toxic materials.

When I was 12 and growing up near Tulsa, the local Baptist church held a record burning in their parking lot, which just happened to be across the street from the football field during a homecoming game.

Their little attention-getting scheme resulted in my lifelong dislike of people who destroy music. The irony is that they ran out of truly "evil" music to burn and had started burning old Herb Alpert and Montovani discs from mom and dad's collection just to keep the fires going.

I think he should illegally download the albums to steal their profits, then burn his hard drive. It would hide any pornography.. (you know, only if it is there [which I'm sure it isn't {right, rev?}])
