URBANA -- As the holiday season comes to a close, it is time for the decorations to come down and that means Christmas lights.  If yours are at the end of their life, you may want to recycle them.  Mack's Twin City Recycling will pay you ten cents per pound if you do.  They can be gently used or completely broken.

    The office manager says they usually ship off several hundred pounds of lights to be broken into parts.
