[TriLUG] OT - need a good local place to shred a lot of documentsin Durham

[Jeremy Davis]

The problem with burning paper in a burn barrel is it does not burn without
continous stirring. It can take a very long laborious time to burn a small
amount.

So the Arduino/Raspberry Pi project needs to periodically feed the fire a
few sheets at a time into the barrel. Might be able to integrate with
OpenCV to identify how well the fire is doing to determine the optimum time
to feed a few more sheets.

It might be easier to feed into an old gas grill a few sheets at a time.
Then no one calls the law thinking it is a burn barrel.
