Trash

No sir. Born and raised in Nixa, mo

I'm like many others here- I pick up what I can where I can. Sometimes you get a mess at the access that would require full on Haz-Mat removal - Yeah, I'm not doing that but I'll make the call.

I gave up a long time ago. I pay someone to haul my trash off at the house and am limited as to how much I deposit on a weekly basis. MDC used to have trash cans at most boat ramps, but they are gone. Where do you put the trash when you pick it up?

I personally would rather educate others to leave no trace, pick up your own trash.

One thing John. From your post it sounds like you just walked up and started shouting at that man. Sound like you got something against old people as well. I do not know why he felt that way and it is clear you never had enough common sense to approach it in a civil manner. You had no idea why he felt that way.

I clean up other people's messes for a living. I also pick up trash when I'm out on the river. One of the things that always goes in the boat with me is one of those cheapie wal-mart laundry bags. It'll hold a lot of beer cans and rinses out in nothing flat.

To everyone else who has or does help keep this planet a decent place to enjoy life: Thank you.

As I recall you do some littering as well, high dollar litter :-)

It sucks when people don't behave in the manner we want. Especially when we are in the right.

One of the downfalls of living in a relatively open, free and democratic society.

Early this year I saw, probably because of the floods, a lot of that tyvek-type stuff hanging in bushes and trees in certain streams and thought it looked really bad but the place I was when I really noticed it, I could have spent all day to pick up what was around in a couple hundred yards. So I decided "well, pick up SOMETHING" and did. I have always been pretty good about picking up what I brought and this year I have been making an effort to pick up something others left behind even if its just one soda or beer can. Its nice to see that others are doing that too.

I managed to litter my wallet somewhere in buck creek about two weeks ago. Had $150 in cash in it. Sucks for me.

Oh, now you've done it. You better watch your back. My forgetter was working pretty good but you had to go and get the rememberer going again.

That happens at your age, just trying to keep you sharp.
