No garbage has to be able to rot you'r thinking of trash.
little bits of torn up pieces of plastic baggies, cummon think....
jim and mb have some on their wall that they call art but im skeptical. personally i cant recall reading what you are talking about. something to do with hanging chads, im guessing. interesting distinction between garbage and trash. id never considered them as different. whereas garbage is the refuse from animal and vegetable matter from a kitchen or market, some trash may rot as well, as its original use was to describe the refuse from plant trimmings, leaves, and twigs, before it took on more universal waste properties. garbage, i would contend, has also moved beyond the bounds of offalness to embody the panoply of litterary genres.
