Wow... who would have thought people would get so passionate about their garbage.

Maybe it's me, but I thought our landfill was the social mecca in town. When a microburst tornado dropped a mess o' trees on our house, I remember strangers coming up to me at the landfill to ask if we were OK or if we needed anything (and it's also where I learned our house had been on AP news.) People were so nice - and I didn't know half of them from Adam.

The guys who run the thing don't have any agendas - they're doing what they have to in a job that... well... who would really want the job? They work with household waste - sometimes very hazardous waste - and I'm sure they're job is no picnic, especially in the summer. Cut 'em some slack, maybe.... or escalate your complaint to the town administrator if they're really out of line.... but it sound to me like (and sorry to say it... but it's my kids' saying) "Busted like Colonel Mustard!"
