rhadin, why stop with the municipalities. This could easily be expanded to a class action suit for anyone who received the CDs, unwanted. UGM would be guilty of trowing their trash on your property, with appropriate actual and punitive damages against UGM. Then further expanded to all junk mail senders. Then further expanded to everyone who now must pay higher prices for stamps due to junk mail. Then further expanded to all postal workers with back problems due to handling all that junk mail.
You could be on a roll. Go for it.
