    How green are you? Do you RECYCLE?

    Not only that, but in all cases (except soda cans), it wastes more energy to recycle something, then it does to make a new one.

    how many people rent from netflix/bb and make backup copies with their dvd burners?

    I signed up for Blockbuster Online today, because the wife and I are going to do AFI's Top 100. I don't anticipate feeling the urge to rip very many of them though. I'll make it through life without a backup copy of Yankee Doodle Dandy.

    your favorite conspiracy theory/fantastic tale...

    Yea, how come I always read about "progress" but the cure never gets any closer. When it comes to the big important stuff, it seems like we have been 20 years away from a cure for the past 20 years!

    A thought about the Tidal Wave

    How did that quote go? Lisa: "Maybe there is no lesson to be learned here." Homer: "Yea. It's just a bunch of stuff that happened." That's how I feel: It's all just a bunch of stuff that happens. If nature were really balancing things out, I would have won the lottery by now.
