annnnd... right after I hit send on that, things start looking up again. 
The guy responsible for this stuff doesn't seem to want it to get scrapped 
any more than I do, and he got in touch with folks down at Cape Canaveral 
(there are various ex-NASA things in the pile), then talked to the family 
of the estate; it sounds like some of it at least might get donated to the 
collection down there.

I'm not sure about non-NASA things at this point, we'll see - but it sounds 
like there's interest now in not junking it, at least!
