For Earth day, I drove around in a 1995 Chevrolet van, releasing carbon dioxide. I serviced coolers that contain freon. Didn't release any, I just did electrical work on them. I helped capitalists sell consumer goods to people. Consumer goods manufactured with petroleum and energy and natural resources. I used gasoline, oil, electricity, worked on freon units, and drove on rubber tires. I filled the gas tank of my van with irreplacable fossil fuel. I turned on lights when I got home, thus ordering the use of nuclear fuel at the local power plant. I spent time on the computer, enjoying the information age. As it gets colder tonight, I'll burn natural gas in my furnace (I can hear it behind me....) thus spewing recklessly more carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide into the air. Life is good. -- Christopher A. Young Learn more about Jesus www.lds.org .

CY: Now, that's a good way to go. the last 130v bulb in this fixture lasted 15 years. One 130v bulb in my bath has lasted 23 years. they don't make them like that anymore! CY: Try keeping the bulb dry, they last longer that way. Don't have the bulb in your bath tub with you. -- Jim Yanik jyanik at kua.net

If it wasn't for a small snafu, I would have taken delivery of a new fossil fuel guzzling, pollution belching 8,000# diesel truck today... Hopefully I'll get it tomorrow.

The worst thing I did was fart a lot. I have been spewing many milliliters of methane and hydrogen sulfide gas into the open air and regretfully, some confined spaces causing several episodes of retching and fainting spells for those around me. I can always tell when my flatulence is particularly pernicious because IT BOTHERS ME. The discolored foliage and birds dropping from the sky is another exceedingly odiferous clue. This has been going on for several weeks now and has caused the destruction of a fair amount of upholstery and at least one evacuation of a crowded public place. I'm not sure what to do, I've tried every normal remedy except for a flare stack on the roof of my home attached to rubber shorts with a flexible hose. I may have to use a draft inducer for it to function properly. There are activated charcoal underpants but I'm afraid the things would be overwhelmed by the sheer volume of my tailpipe emissions. Perhaps a catalytic converter from an automobile, but those have to be fairly hot in order for it to work and I could burn my backside in the process. The incredible volume and high velocity of the escaping fumes is quite painful because of the violent slamming open and shut of some very delicate tissue which comprises my posterior orifice. I don't know what to do except to move away from other people until this problem abates but a lot of wildlife could be decimated if I moved to a rural area not to mention the possibility of severe crop damage. I'm at a loss as to the proper course of action I should take. TDD

Dunno how much of your diet consists of beans or other legumes, but if it's a significant amount, you might want to look at cooking methods that reduce flatulence. Unfortunately, I'm having a hard time finding this information out there in cyber-land. Years ago I used to listen to Bay Area chef Narsai David's 5-minute reports on KCBS (all news), and in one of them he told of a sure-fire method of cooking beans so as to eliminate flatulence. The method came from some ag school in the Midwest, and involved soaking the beans for a certain time, draining the water, etc. I did find this link dealing with the topic: http://www.nutraingredients.com/Research/Ferment-beans-for-better-nutrition-and-no-flatulence-experts-tell-industry Who knows--may reduce your flammability index. -- Save the Planet Kill Yourself - motto of the Church of Euthanasia (http://www.churchofeuthanasia.org/)

I have a Logitech keyboard with back lit keys. I do have a desk lamp with a 13 V CFL lighting the desk top to find things. The only other lighting I use in this basement on a regular basis are the stairway lights, which are only on after dark. > the last 130v bulb in this fixture lasted 15 years. > One 130v bulb in my bath has lasted 23 years. > they don't make them like that anymore! > > -- Bill In Hamptonburgh, NY In the original Orange County.
