Hint: Dr. Martin
Dr. Martin watched the preparation for the banquet from the balcony. His wife had banished him from helping because it was in his honor. He wiped the sweat from his bald head in frustration, however, because he loved to bake and run the barbeque himself, even as he loved to manage the distribution of barrels of beer to the bar. As he leaned on the barrier he heard a bark and turned to look towards the river. Another barge was floating by loaded up with old, discarded car batteries. A recent ballot to ban putting the trash in a local garbage dump had failed and the barge was taking its baggage up the river to the next town. That city had baffled its own residents by offering to accept the trash at a bargain rate. Apparently there was a large area of barren land that they had not been able to use.
