Thanks, Franks and John, for your comments. This is at an environmental education center. They are trying to make a point (and using tobacco money to preach). This place is located in my county, and the county recycling lets us put all recyclables in one container for curbside pick-up every other week.
John, do you have Freecycle where you are? It's a good way to get rid of things you no longer use. www.freecycle.org/ Dan Matyola http://www.pentaxphotogallery.com/danieljmatyola On Sat, Dec 1, 2012 at 5:51 PM, John Sessoms <[email protected]> wrote: > I've been thinking a bit about recycling lately. > > Mainly because I'm doing a fair amount as I try to de-clutter this > house.
