“repurpose”SPOTTING: “I saw this on TV when I was watching a show on the history of BBQ and thought it might be of interest to you. ‘Repurposing’ nearly 100 years ago. The Kingsford Company was formed by Henry Ford and E.G. Kingsford during the early 1920s. Charcoal was developed from Ford Motor Company’s factory waste wood scrap.”Mark in St Louis

RE: Mark, Awesome! I guess now we can say Mr. Ford pioneered two economic endeavors: 1) the Assembly Line, and 2) “repurposing”!
