Getting Rid of Multiple Longboxes

I have about 17 longboxes. It doesn't compare to Whippy's 3-room wall-to-wall clusterfuxx0r of comics, but it's still a lot.
And it needs to go.
I'm going through the boxes, issue-by-issue to remove stuff. For example, I'm keeping most of my JLA run; Morrison is great and Giffen rocks, but anything by Joe Kelly and half the stuff by Mark Waid is going in the "Bye bye" pile. As are the "Obsidian / Nuklon / The Yazz" years of Justice League America.
I plan on paring it down to, at most, 10 longboxes.
It's going to be a bitch and a half to put them on eBay, grading notwithstanding.
There's a lot of $ in there, but I'm not above donating a box or two to some kids.
Anyone have any other recommendations?
I can't hold out till Halloween 2007.

Can I deduct you from my taxes?
He's actually very sick.
I, meanwhile, count as 12,000 different impoverished single mothers.
And our babies are bored!
You can send me your books
As long as you remove anything that might be considered inappropriate for children the people at the hospital will be fucking stoked to get them.
So please, help a deserving nerd overcome this debilitating deficiency. Give. Give 'til it hurts.
Yeah, I considered that, but aren't old comic books full of disease to give kids with poor immune systems infections?
Less than 40, including TPB's (and Scott Adams books, for a strange coincidence). And most of those are old issues of "Sonic the Hedgehog" from when I was younger (a wasted youth).
Clearly, I am the most needy of all.
Seriously, though, if you want to donate to kids, a school would probably be the best. Just make sure they're not issues that it would be a tragedy if they were destroyed, because comics are not going to last long in a school environment.
Oh, wait. Squashua doesn't give comics to posters who speak of themselves in the third person.
Squashua not included.
I was uh... talking about a guy I know named Hensler, who I'm going to give them to. I hate people that talk in the 3rd person. Hell, I hate people period.
No AIDS for them. Soldiers are also an option I considered.
