Have there been any strong reactions to this project?
Are there people who have jumped on board with you?
Have there been any other projects that have evolved from this? Do you foresee any ?

I was wondering if you ever get sick of dealing with peoples trash?
And what was the most interesting thing that someone threw away?

What was your inspiration for doing this project? Did the results reflect what you had hoped the outcome was going to be? Do you have any other plans for similar projects in Second Life?

How popular did this project get? Did a lot of people come or just familiar faces?
Why did you keep going out to get things only to bring them back to decay?
What happened with your advertisement signs? Did you get to distribute them or place them somewhere?

Uno.

Since people can come and drop off stuff and recycle it, CAN PEOPLE COME AND TAKE THINGS TO KEEP LIKE A FREE STORE? After all, what was stated by eteam, it doesn’t look like trash.

Zwei
WHAT WAS THE MOST INTERESTING PIECE OF “TRASH” YOU HAVE SEEN DROPPED OFF AT THE DUMPSTER?

Trois
HOW MANY SCRIPTS HAVE YOU USED TO DECAY ON THE “TRASH”?

Were there any real world inspirations for this project?
How did you get people motivated to dump their "trash" in the Second Life Dumpster?
What can we learn from this project that is applicable in the real world (meatspace)?
How involved were you in Second Life before this project?

Do any of ya'll consider yourselves 'packrats' in the physical?
Has anyone ever offered to buy your dump from you?
Whats the weirdest/creepiest item you have ever found in the trash?
Do you have virtual birds flying around the trash?
Have you ever found anyone living in the trash?
Do you ever plan to translate this project into the physical?

Ok, hmmm. The last one means I either reform someone's questions or I will junky questions (works for you because you are junk collectors).

Has anyone ever tried to reclaim their garbage?
Have you ever found bodies (not living) in the trash?
Have you ever kept a piece of garbage and brought it home?

I know, poopy. Sorry. Thank you!
