[Bloody Sam Roberts]

My town in MA has a large vehicle that sucks up leaves in late Fall after homeowners make a pile at the edge of their yard.

The town composts theses leaves for about 18-24 months and then gives the loam away to homeowners for free.

The vehicle they use makes the Devil's own noise and can be heard from 1/2 a mile away. If it weren't for the free loam, I'd love to see that beast mothballed.
