From where I'm sitting, it sure looks like the alleged perpetrators either were too dumb to realize the logical result, or didn't care. I was being polite and restrained by putting them in the first category.
In case you hadn't caught the nuance, the auto-equation _also_ involved ambient conditions of the particular night before in question. Other factors also come into play around here. Due to the common presence of nocturnal critters up to and including black bears, we never put out garbage overnight. It is liable to end up torn open and scattered, even without wind.
If that wouldn't be a problem in your neighborhood, I'm glad I live a fair distance away.
