The thought occured to me that "registering your collection" with the local
computer club or school might not be a bad idea

What if you outlive your “executioners” ?
You need to have someone a good deal younger than you to be your executor.

this a bit too.
Having just updated my Advance Directives

the knife and saw, I thought a bit about the subject of estate planning.
My Lovely Wife, were she to become a Lovely Widow has enough trouble
dealing with day-to-day tasks. There's no way that she would want to
deal with the minutiae of getting rid of the old junk I have. Since
I'll be long past the "caring" stage, I've informed her that it's
perfectly acceptable to my memory to have a cleaning service come in and
dispose of the stuff by carting it off to a recycler.
It will simplify her life dramatically.
Sorry, but that's what will work for her. She will not deal well with
strangers coming into her house, ransacking the place for a bunch of old
computer gear and musical instruments.

Hi Chuck,
Having had a quad bypass (I'm good!) a few years back I've thought about
My intention is to have friends act as executioners of my stuff as they
too are collectors.
I do believe if they get money for the stuff it will help my wife out in
the future after they cover expenses and their time...the idea is they
would simply take everything my wife doesn't want away and deal with the
disposal for her and then make some restitution to her.
These are honourable folks...and my wife knows them.
