    Can someone please invent a tool to convert waste sheet rock, cut-outs, cut-offs, etc to mud on site, so the waste doesn't go to the dump?  A kind of sheetrocker's cuisinart?

    Wouldn't that be wonderful!  I know landscape & paving contractors in California grind up the bits to re-use in their work, but I think they have to peel the paper off first - especially if it's been painted! - and i don't know if there's a machine for that.  Yet. Sounds like a great high school project...
