I go by the rule of "always leave the hunting grounds in better condition then when you got there" If I dig trash I take it home. If it is interesting then I keep it otherwise I toss it.

I agree completely.
If I see someone doing that I would say something to them. If they got smart or arrogant with me I would explain it to them the old fashioned way.

Amazing how just one can mess it all up for everyone.... Thanks on finding that and fixing it before it had an impact towards the Mding hobby... I had just had a talk with the grounds keeper of our parks in our city and he knows that I Md,,,he told me someone is doing the same thing in one of the parks..He knew it was not me but asked me to keep an eye out for the one doing it. Asked me to educate the person if I see them.. He said it would be better for me to find the person than him. He is a hot head and it will be ugly if he finds the person.....Thanks again for doing the right thing.

Tom
