But a lot of it goes out in the trash instead of recycled because the word is out that it's piling up with no place to go.

The reason that junking a car costs so much is that they say they can't make a profit on it by barging it the thousand miles down to Seattle. This is a new development, however; up until 3 years ago, junking a car was free once you had removed the oil and tires.

Giardia, of course, can happen anywhere there is wildlife in the area.
