If you're like me, you're pretty indifferent about the new curbside recycling. Unless you're like my neighbor, who apparently doesn't care about ANYTHING. --And we know this because of the pile of pizza boxes that SURROUND THEIR DUMPSTER. You can't even see the thing. If you are indifferent, however, it's probably because of all the confusion regarding when to put it out, and specifics of what can and can't be recycled.
