There seems to be confusion/contradiction about which post office was the site of the attack on the postal worker.
@11:08am: The NY Times reports this using a photo of the Cooper Square station. Daily News also specifically reports it as Cooper Square station.
The criminal complaint was specific. It was the 4th Ave station, not the Stuyvesant PO pictured in the newsclip.
This compost thing is bs and yet another way to nickel and dime the working class out of money. Read the book Wasteland. Think about the single use plastic of every Trader Joe's product before you shop there. https://pirg.org/articles/trader-joes-can-do-more-to-reduce-plastic-waste/
Composting is not bs. Larger issue is only 5% of eligible plastic is recycled. Plastic bags, film, and similar can be recycled at the plastic bag drop off at Best Buy in USQ right inside the entrance.
