I have been traveling a lot!  I tend to be pretty observant and have started a series of vignettes about my hours and days in airports.  I will post that soon, after I have a minute to edit. But today I was in Atlanta and I was surprised by the talking and compacting trash receptacles.  Innocently waiting for my plane to board, someone threw something in the trash can and it started playing the recording to let everyone in a 15 foot radius know that it was compacting and please wait to throw anything else in.   What are they going to think of next!?
