When John Tierney wrote a cover story for the New York Times Magazine titled
"Recycling Is Garbage," the reaction was fierce.
One critic sent him a box filled with garbage.
The 51-year-old reporter will have a prime opportunity to keep stirring things up after being named yesterday to the newspaper's op-ed page, succeeding William Safire as a columnist.

I can't wait.
