    RECYCLING- cleaning up the galaxy
Thousands of years ago when hyperdrive was new, it was an exciting
time to be alive transversing the space lanes.  Imagine yourself in
your little ship "the Scouter" as you searched for your fame.  If you
could find a quicker route to Corellia you'd be more rich than you
could imagine...  Those were the days, a lifetime's exilhiration came
with the luck of the force as you would spin your nav dial like you
were at your favorite cantina's Egaunt Table.  All the luck of the
galaxy rolled with your "Nav Punch".  Fly to close to a star, through
a supernova or log that million credit hyperlane... it was all in
your hands.  Your hands & the fate of the galaxy.
Well dreamers those days are no more with scouting dying off,
replaced by droids & sensors you have no outlet.  The fact is your
local galactic government is taking the "Fun" out of fate with their
constant disregard for a growing galactic problem-  Trash!
   Call it trash, rubbish, garbage, or dump its a constant reminder of
how dangerous it is to jump the space lanes.  In days of yesteryear
it was exciting to take a chance at nearly missing those spacial
objects, it was your luck.  Now with the blatent disregard for
safety, let alone your fate in the galaxy Big Government vessels
constantly drop their waste before jumping into Hyperspace.  Dumping
their waste into systems, into lanes & right into your lap if you are
the unlucky ship that could crash into a piece of junks
hyperspace shadow.
   Its not luck anymore, its enevetable that you or someone you know
will be killed by someone else's afterthoughts...  The dangers are
there now we as a galactic community must act.  Stand up for your
safety, stand up for the beauty of you system or sector.  Your
fathers before you didn't stand for it & they created a wonderful
community because of it.  Don't help destroy your sons', daughters' &
beings' future.
It's time to cry over spilled milk, let them know its time to clean
up the galaxy...

    About the Article:  I just looked up & saw a recycle logo,
remembered that Imps drop their garbage before they go into
hyperspace & the article wrote itself...
