Maybe we should just copyright our trash, so that if anyone ever finds a use
for it, we could get royalties... =)

The really bizarre part is that if someone gets a burr up his ass about it,
they can arrest you for stealing.  Depending upon where the trash is, it's
either the property of the original owner or the property of the city.

It bends my mind to think about the concept of "stealing" trash...  :-P
