NO TRASH!!!
Um, Did I Mention No TRASH???

Hitherto it was thought our service recycle program took only #'s 1 & 2 plastics; a check yesterday revealed #'s 1-7 are accepted.

[Trash being meat and/or dairy substances neither compostable nor feral-critter consumable and other small maknkindmadeweirdos...] Now it looks as if that will be reduced by a whopping75% again!!!
