Recycling in Pittsburgh, Part Two

A couple of weeks ago I mentioned that I had a mouse in the house. The mouse seems to have died due to a recycling accident. Somehow he found his way into an olive oil bottle in the recycling bin and couldn't get out. You can thank me for not taking a picture of the result.

I believe there are much more humane ways to get rid of mice.

In other recycling news, the P-G's Rich Lord reports that Recycling Begins to Pay off for Pittsburgh.

Recycling still seems like a feel-good thing, but as the collection, distribution, and technology improves, I can't help but think that we'll be doing even more recycling and that there will be an even better market for our discards. At least we'lll be making more room in our landfills for stuff from New York and New Jersey.
