To The Editor: I realize that times are tough for some people these days, and some good old dumpster diving sometimes allows folks to find little jewels they can use, either to keep or to sell. I have no problem with this.Where the problem comes in is when these divers choose to come on to someone’s property without first asking, and then they start pulling stuff out of the dumpster to get to the “good stuff.” When they leave, they don’t even have the courtesy to put the stuff they don’t take back in its place. They just root through the dumpster and leave a mess that I then have to clean up. Unfortunately, there is no honor among this strange breed of people, because if there was, they would clean up their mess when they are done.As for me, if you want to dig through my trash, please take the time to ask first. If you don’t ask, and I catch you, the only diving you will be doing is diving for cover. Glenn ShawgoWarrenton
