Trash?
 
So, Cindy & I pull into the local dump, 4 trash cans in the back of the old Dodge.

Girl comes out of the shelter of her little booth and says: "Trash??"

I respond: "Naw, we're here to play pool and have a couple of beers."

True story...she was asking if we were recycle only, which is free. But what a dumb way to ask...

Not so dumb...she didn't have a clue what was in those cans. Coulda been beer cans.

You might chill out a bit...

You could have said "No we are nice people, but Britney Spears is in the car right behind us."

No sense of humor here. Trash? We were at a dump! Oh well...

Consider this: In the world of solid waste we have the following:

1) garbage - usually putrescible (organic) food waste with mixed non-organic
waste material
2) trash - normally non-organic material (unwanted waste) without the
putrescible garbage
3) rubbish - waste or unwanted non-organic debris (normallly associated with
papergoods, cardboard, etc).
4) liter - loose debris normally classified as non-putrscible, usually "rubbish"

So, asking about "garbage" was correct since some landfills will take non-putrscible material and ad-mix with liquids for a 30% solids by weight mixture sufficient for final disposition in the working face of the landfill.

"......now you know the rest of the story............"
