Really?!? So if I pay people to take a crap on your lawn, should we tolerate that simply because it's a source of jobs? Same difference. The phone book is just a little bigger.

As I see it, you're getting paid to distribute trash - to litter - when you deliver books to homes that are no longer interested in receiving print directories. Wouldn't you rather be paid to provide a valuable service to those who continue to WANT phone books rather than for creating litter? And think about this, Brett. How do the businesses that pay to advertise in the books you distribute benefit from being placed at houses where they won't be opened? They don't. So you're wasting their money by doing so. And, since you pay taxes in your community, you end up paying for the solid waste costs of disposing of books that are never used. I don't blame you for this, Brett. I hope we can both agree that we'd be better off if phone companies targeted their deliveries to those who still find the books valuable.
