Suspicious Trash Correspondent Brian Donahoe noticed something that probably wasn’t meant to be thrown in a clear bag on the floor in Butler yesterday evening:
(Ed: It says “Cloning Human Beings” for those visually challenged among us)
@"The Cloner" Look, I was doing research. Jeez people! As for \having a bad feeling about this\, this is Columbia! Wouldn’t you want clones of highly intelligent individuals to fix a globalizing world, economic downturn, and the lack of fashionistas on College Walk [yes Bwog, I saw your last article on College Walk!]
@mr random fact: clear trash bags are for recyclable material ranging from paper to glass bottles so maintenance crews can tell whether or not there are non-recyclable materials in the bags. it turns out, columbia doesn’t sort recycling to save money and the university can get fined big bucks for putting non-recyclable things in with the recycling when the city garbage trucks come by. so if there is something non-recyclable in one of those clear bags (say, a plastic bottle in paper recycling), columbia just throws all that recyclable material away with the trash. sucks, huh? esp. for those people that spend the time to sort their recycling.
