Your local computer recycling spot. Could cost you 30 bucks or so. Also, most Best Buys will recycle them for you. Check with your local one. (If you have those...)

Already tried leaving it on the curb, no takers. Took it by a thrift shop, no dice.

People I know who grab things off the curb assume that any TV found on the curb (tube or flatscreen) is a deader.

Shotgun or rifle at a friendly and flexible shooting range.

Or give it to an electronics recycler.
