I'd say "Don't bother".

Once you've gone to the hassle of removing that horrid, itchy,  makes-  
you- spit -blood  stuff from the attic,  if you were to then turn around  
and stuff it into the walls of that building, leaving it for some other  
poor soul to deal with in the future,  I think it'd be akin to pulling a  
three inch long thorn out of your side and then jamming it into your arse.

I think glass is a wonderful material. As fibrous insulation ? I think  
that I'd rather have a 3 inch thorn jabbed into my [use your imagination  
here].

Even putting glass into the Blue Box for recycling should be banned,  
according to one "expert" that was talking on CBC Radio awhile ago,  
arguing that it's a waste of time/energy/resources. But that's a  
discussion for another day.
