    Let's talk about ozone depletion, acid rains, nuclear wastes,
    greenhouse effect and such important issues a bit. 
    At least ask yourselves what have you done for mother earth.

    	Arg! We have plenty of conferences for serious discusssion...let's
    limit this conf to the things it was intended for...fun...
    
    	(and icecream of course) :*)
    
    jim
    
    p.s. - no offense intended. I know that ozone depletion etc are
    extemely important, but I don't think this is the place for that type
    of discussion.

    Okay, seriously, I think we should ban Rap Music. (pardon the
    oxymoron). It is noise polution. :-) And all that hip hoppin'
    around is prolly causing earthquakes somewhere....

Wrong conference, Bob...

I run a GREEN hobby business... 100% of my scrap goes to the recyclers. I must
be serious about it also since I can't get around my shop at the moment due to
the buildup of scrap (due to my van still being busted). I also BUY from green
businesses whenever possible.

    re .9
    
    Hi jim. I think you're right at your concerns. 
    The first thing I do when I open up my newspaper is to look for a
    funny article that will make my day. 
    
    I have an MS degree from Env. Sciences, that's why I just worried about
    what I can share with ::friends. This doesn't necessarily be too
    serious as it was named.
    
    Well, special thanks to JT for his genious reply.

Don't let the "boxers" fool ya, Jt's quite a lady (yeah, I noticed 8^)

Hey Joyce, lucky friend 8^)

My hobby business involves styrofoam so I'm VERY concerned where my scrap goes.
My raw material is generated in a process that involves live steam to expand
rather than chemicals. I grew up in the 60s/70s and I'm very concerned about my
good friend Mother Earth.

    Megathanks BIG boy. My heart is with you, however I think a Sumo wrestler
    should only shower himself in a shower-cabin. I know mother earth loves you.

    Seref, I am currently working toward my degree in Environemntal Studies
    and my volunteer resume reads like a whats_what of Earth friendly
    activities......we just like to keep the tone of ::FRIENDS real light
    and fluffy and not much stays on track here.
    
    RE:  .15
    
    MWah!!!!! thanks Jim dear!

<blush> aw Jt, you shouldn't have 8^)

Glad to hear there are other enviro-conscious people around. I'm not blatant so
I don't find out who else is around me. Every can, bottle, paper recycled makes
a difference!

227.19bye-byeISTWI1::OZKANFri Jun 17 1994 00:298
    Be sure I am not forced by somebody to write this note. As a volunteer
    for friendliness I obey your kind invitation to write to some other
    conferences.   
    I don't like to be limited also.
    
    Goodbye ::friends, 
    
    Cheers  
227.20You should keep ::friends in your notebookAKOCOA::BBARRYFlagStaff ain't just in AzFri Jun 17 1994 00:357
    Bye to you to, try PEAR::SOAPBOX 
    
    They are indeed a discussion-oriented lot.
    
    You can always visit, when you are in the mood for friendly fluff :-)

227.21Simply absurdISTWI1::OZKANFri Jun 17 1994 01:0111
    re .20
    
    Bob, I don't think you may be one of those uncurables of 1592. of the 
    SOAPBOX conference and I don't think your enthusiastic fluff tone 
    progressed in such places. Who do you think you're fooling.

    Well, gee ... finally an issue I can really sink my teeth into and the
    prime players go off to play somewhere else. (sigh)
    
    Being one of the Healers of the Earth I would have found this topic fun
    and interesting. Taking care of the Mother is not all drudgery and
    seriousness. I do it with a light and happy heart. One of the best
    publications I can direct anyone to is `Green Egg'. Absolutely
    wonderful magazine!!

227.23WRKSYS::REITHJim WRKSYS::Reith MLO1-2/c37 223-2021Fri Jun 17 1994 01:567
Serenity, I'd be interested in either a back issue of Green Egg or info on
getting a copy. I didn't always have a three piece suit in the closet and I do
still ear tiedye 8^)

No problem playing here as long as we keep it FUN!

227.24PARTY PARTY PARTYZEKE::STARBRIGHTSerenityFri Jun 17 1994 02:5211
    OOOOooooooOOO! That's a wonderful idea! (What idea?) Yes, A tie-dye
    party!! Let's do it!! I will be delighted to post the address next week
    for Green Egg. It really is the most wonderful publication.
    
    Now ... about that tie dye party .... everyone needs to bring their own
    t-shirt(s) or whatever they want to tie die. I can pick up the dye, but
    if everyone would like to donate a buck or so towards defraying the
    cost it sure would help. Chopsticks, rubber bands, string or yarn and a
    microwave .. that's all we need!
    
    (And MOE-Balls and munchies and hot loud music!)

227.26Huh?AKOCOA::BBARRYFlagStaff ain't just in AzFri Jun 17 1994 04:0513
    Ref  .20: 
    
    	Different strokes for different folks. 1520 in SOAPBOX is 
    	one of many topics, which may or may not warrant serious 
    	consideration. I would suggest you not infiltrate that 
    	particular topic from a "Mother Earth" perspective. 
    	
    	There is a topic re: Greenhouse gases/ozone depletion, etc,
    	which may be more appropriate.
