 We see a lot of cardboard, glass, and plastic bottles in commercial garbage bins that should be recycled. We're more than happy to work with businesses to get them started with recycling and we hope they'll cooperate.

 Most people choose a funeral home for all the wrong reasons: It's close to their house, or it has served their family in the past. The range of prices offered by various funeral homes for comparable services is incredibly wide.

 It really is an acute situation. It's an opening for Congress to do something for people who shouldn't have to choose between heating their homes or feeding their families, or buying their prescription drugs.
