    Whats the gray area rule ?

    Subject dumpsters: I realize its probably not really legal to dump dive BUT i DO IT , Natural if I come upon a metal only container (signs make no dif ) If all i see is metal I realize that is off limit's. But if i come upon a container with metal and garbage mixed - thats fare game . From a legal stand point of getting hurt who in charge is going to say have a good time take what you want. I have signed wavers on boat rides for peat sake .
    SO to day i hit a mother load, near by a dumpster was metal only but then i saw it a dumpster with wire along with - ceiling tiles - sheet rock - bags of this and that BUT there was A LOT of communication wire all intermingled I yanked & pulled I got about 50 LB.There is so much more It is gona take some work to untangle so I decided to not be a pig about it I got what I did / now I'll get some feed back . This is a 6 ft tall container I am clearly on my own here . So should I go back - If a Black & White roll by - how on earth is he gonna just keep going . But I tell you true It is full of plenty of garbage / any way why would workers not put it in the metal only container a mere 20 feet away ?. There is at least another 150 LB of wire there
