They are giving them away by the millions at grocery stores now.

And at Burger King. It said "Free. Take one.", so a friend of mine took one, approximately two hundred times, in parallel.

Not sure what he did with them, he's kind of an artistic type.

I would think the microwave would be honored to nuke this fine disk.

Trust me. Microwaving a CD makes a neat little light-show, as the tiny lightning arcs across the surface of the disc. It also leaves this interesting jagged spiderweb pattern on the disc itself, as the current tears through the obstructing pLastic coating and burns the layer of foil.

But every time you do it, you take away from the lifetime of the Microwave. If you do it enough, the Microwave won't work as well, or just won't work.

Metal in the Microwave it a bad idea. Larger metal objects in the Microwave will start fires.

All of this information is from personal experience, this is the kind of thing you learn in a house full of young bachelors. Marshmellow and eggs are also not something to put in the microwave, though they just make a big mess (unless the raw egg blow up real good).
