You boys act like he threw a Stihl away. It was only a old jred and he just bought a new cheaper jred to replace it.

My neighbor calls his wild thing his "Big Saw". His other saw is an old xl-9. He about had a coronary when I put the 064 to work. i told him his xl-9 was twice the saw that wild thing was.
I have a neighbor with a Wild Thing that he thinks is a "big" saw. He honestly thinks any saw with an 18" bar will really cut through a 36" log. He wanted me to help him cut up some big oak and told me not to bring my PP330 and SXL-AO because he had a "big" saw.
County dumps here stopped letting people pic stuff because of arguments. A few would hang around all day to pic thru and be in they way. I agree with the recycling but it was becoming a problem. I have been known to cruise the city streets on trash day. I have a buddy that runs a trash truck 1 call and I know where all the easy wood in the city is.
Unnecessary carpet bombing.
Seriously, why would you think that the "green freaks" (whatever the heck THAT is) are responsible for following the man around making sure he doesn't remove anything from the landfill. I suspect its a liability issue.
Trying to keep lawn clippings out of a permanent landfill does not sound freakish to me. I think municipalities are making an effort to save their very expensive landfill capacity for things that ACTUALLY NEED to be thrown out. Since they will pass the cost of the next landfill on to you and will charge you in taxes to do so, you might want to make the connection that they are attempting to be smart on your behalf even if you don't "get it." What of ANY of this does not sound like a good idea?
Or will you just throw everything you can into the landfill and then complain about higher taxes? If you are too lazy to think past your own garbage can, I would refrain from criticizing others for at least TRYING to be decent, thoughtful humans. We all differ somewhat on exactly what should be done on environmental issues (you gotta love this country for that!), but there are some real "no brainers" out there. Not hucking everything you feel like into a landfill is one of them.
I'm no psychologist but I think you're mad about something else that happened to you that has predisposed you to imagining an enormous category of insane human call a "green freak." There are some out there, just like there are murderers, pedophiles, and quintuplets. To imagine that "green freaks" now run your landfill is poppycock. You should embrace good ideas even if they are not perfect instead of villifying imaginary foes to justify lazy behavior.
Was Ronald Reagan really a Contra? Of course not. He wanted to take the stigma out of the word "Contra" so that people would have the courage to act on their feelings as lovers of freedom. You don't have to be a "Contra" to feel like your freedom is worth fighting for. In the same way, you don't have to be a "green freak" just because you care about taking care of terra firma.
I'll add my apologies now as I'm sure some folks will be ticked off at my post. The "green freak" comment just rubbed me the wrong way. There are a lot of guys on here that think intelligently about what they do every day and not just about chainsaws. They shouldn't feel badly about thoughtful behavior because someone has imprinted the idea that its a "green freak" thing. We can all quibble about the details, but it is a good thing to try to make good choices.
I'll bet even Gary composts his lawn clippings . I dare you to call HIM a green freak!!
Steady on there Andre.......didn't mean to to cut a nerve.
Hope this clears things up. No offense Andre
