No I don't intend to misuse it. I just have a very broad definition of what garbage is. As far as I am concerned its all the same and I don't care what they do with it or where they take it after they leave my house. SO I'm not misusing it.
Unfortunately the wording on the can indicates that I am participating something called recycling, which I am not. Leaving it at the end of my driveway is kind of like driving with it on the bumper of my car. I don't want to spread that message around so I need to set the record straight.
