well got to say this but theres a interesting calaculation that people should 
bear in mind 

a crt monitor  for free sounds a good offer  but 
using aprox 100 to 150W costs aprox  20p per day to run 
(given 8hrs use a day ) against  4p per day for a 19" lcd

over 2 years  the crt monitor will cost you aprox £160 in electric 
almost enough to pay for a lcd monitor and its annual power consumption 
against £30 for the lcd 

so although it may seem a good offer it would over 3 years cost more than 
buying a brand new lcd monitor 
plus leaving the problem of desposing of the crt in the end to the persons 
getting them for free 

better to send them for recycleing
