Your correspondent isn't quite clear on what this is about, but it is a frequent site here. Along any road with any amount of commercial activity in Kabul, you'll spot these mountains/walls of big containers out at the curb. We assumed at first that they were full of gasoline for sale to passing motorists. But then we heard a competing theory that they're empties, waiting for a truck to come re-fill them (for running generators, maybe). I don't think the security guys are going to let me hop out and figure it out.
