Greetings Greenkeys!

Until a wise, kind, generous Listmember provided me with a Real Chadbox 
- I did the following to keep the little yellow bits from propagating 
all over the house...

A standoff (1/4", threaded for #10-32) extends down from the pan into 
the orange bin, and attaches to it's bottom surface - to empty it just 
remove the lower screw.

My ASR33 is next to a desk so the chadbox is hidden, but it doesn't look 
all that bad....  IMHO.
