  ok,  so as it is still technically earth day,  i will go on record. and state that i have recycled every bit of plastic,  glass,  cardboard and metal that came out of trc over the past 3 years.
and that the people at the boyle county recycling center think i am demon- posessed. i see them 3- 4 times a week,  and they see my stuff the other days. i oftren drop stuff off on saturday nights after closing.
around 10: 30 or so. i call those 'daring midnight drops'. i have even given up on turning off the van when i pull up. or turning off npr. i just leap out,
 open up the back end,  pile up the goods,  and drive back to work. after all this time i am annoyed that some of my staff have yet to 'get' what this is all about. they still try to throw away pop cans. or mayonaise jars.
and i still drag them out fo the trash for recycling. we save the earth one jar at a time.
