tends to keep down native uprising^ and makes citizens overlook the rising tax rate. But fears of misfiling.^ can reach near phobic dimension.;. Even the frequent fines haven’t kept up with the cost of the project.
The casual visitor is soon swept up in this whole thing. I recall standing in the container-crowded kitchen'! of one household. I felt that I had’; mastered the whole thing, sort of’, the feeling one gets from figuring; out instructions for the VCR written' in Japanese. I was about to put a washed and rinsed can with what thought were its fellows. But I had erred and could be subject to fine. I was going to put a non-aluminum can', with the aluminums. The whole inci- * dent was almost as frightening as, the time I put the old Christmas1 wrappings with the newspapers in cardboard box. That little caper, if detected, could have been a triple ‘ whammy.
As one can imagine, bags, bar*s rels and boxes are everywhere, both' inside and out. The variations are; colorful and imaginative. They ar6' also all over the place. And of course, a cardboard box can’t be' used to hold newspapers because1 cardboard day could come on the day before newspaper day and so on! ‘ Plastic bags are hard to use; they all-1 look alike.
In an informal time and motion study, I determined that each householder in Woodbury spent a minimum of two hours a week in the; cleaning and filing of trash. I didn’t even take into account transportingSadly,

Muted singing of “Garbage Uber Alles” may be heard* in the New Jersey night as scofflawa commingle three kinds of paper withunclean old cans.
I don’t know what the garbage; answer is for Rappahannock County. Frankly, I do not care if webury it, bum it or build another mountain. I only know that anyonewho even suggests recycling should find out first if there are any buyers for the stuff and then should head for a week of advanced penance in Woodbury, New Jersey.
