Excellent Glen, and while we're at it, let's stop using styrofoam take-away garbage (clamshells, cups, ect..) Maybe a small campaign is all it would take, ask local businesses to stop, and when they do, they get a cool looking sign/poster to post in their window (which we all will look for). You see the sign, you know you won't be shocked to receive your burrito after it has been wrapped in 2 inch thick mummy casing, and after you've already paid for it.

Multi-colored hands were considered for the illustration, but the story was about prison overcrowding, not how many of them are white, how many are mexican or black ect..
That is another valid story though.

That's a great idea. Also I think we should not be supporting take out restaurants which still use styrofoam. Last year SB talked of banning styro used for take out foods .. I still see places using it . What happened?

On Paper or Plastic?

There is a self indulgent epidemic taking over many peoples minds these days, It is taking the form of abusive emails, blogings and comments. The reason why? Nobody has to show up and answer for these hateful messages face to face!
Nice job Starshine, I enjoy your commentary more each week. Don't hold back girl.

On How to Love Hate Mail

This is an outrage!
Woman, elders and true servants paying the price for these 'leaders' disgraceful misbehavior is an abomination.
Reinforce community and abandon structures which abandon you.

Forgive me, but this letter seems snotty, self-righteous and offers no solutions for anything.
Maybe we have to all help each other remember what things to do?
How about asking our restaurants to quit using clamshells and styrofoam and switch to something else? (just 1 idea.)
