According to MM's website-these machines are being installed in sewage systems all over the country-and some others.Maybe THATS what I need to get rid of the tree branches in my backyard?probably would grind them into mulch.And the neighbors would love this-"Hey don't put that couch on the trashpile-feed it to my disposer--MUFFIN MONSTER!"Same with pallets.However my septic tank would be so reciptive of such things.And oh yes-maybe even fit it with a gas motor so it could be used in the yard.Planning to see the movie the machine "stars" in when its relaesed on DVD-Blu Ray at that on 2-26.And yes you wouldn't get back anything you drop into Muffin Monster-so be sure you don't WANT it before dropping it in!And if its in a sewage system-the main guideline here is --"DON'T FALL IN!!"
