Occasional Special Feature: Good Karma Happy Vibe Deed

So, somewhere, someone invented the garbage chute. Roosevelt Island has an entire pneumatic tube Automated Vacuum Collection System, "Here on Roosevelt Island, we take pride in our garbage. Taking out the trash, for us, is not so mundane a task: We know that when it is released from our hands, it travels the high-tech route known as the Automatic Vacuum Collection (AVAC) System. A computer brings the trash receptacles in each building to life every hour, opening up a valve that releases trash into one of two underground pipes. (There are two main pipes, one each along this island's east and west sides, that alternate operation every 30 minutes.) ... The trash is whisked away through these pipes at 55 mph to the AVAC complex across the street, built in 1975, designed by Kallmann & McKinnell (Motorgate's architects)."

So, my building has a lower tech (super operated) garbage chute. It bangs, it clangs and it apparently according to some grouch shouldn't be used after 11pm (Exhibit 1). Makes sense, but why so antagonistic? So, instead of being annoyed at this red sign directly outside my door so that I would have to see it EVERY TIME I exited the building, I covered it up with my own sign (Exhibit 2). Now isn't that just nicer?
