Yes, I have heard about this on Discovery Channel. And they dug up
that landfill at New York and found was just grey sludge at the
bottom. But most of stuff they found was still readable and bit
discolored. There should be a better way to compost them...
Allow enough O2 there, it will decompose and oxidize better.
