I'm not entirely sure my indoor/outdoor cat doesn't go to some kind of secret rendezvous with co-conspirators in the middle of the night. :-)<BR/><BR/>I was joking about "criminalizing" but I knew your city was making some strides forward on the bag front.Sidneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16284680909152676159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14761314.post-17919264548203269132007-10-01T23:44:00.000-05:002007-10-01T23:44:00.000-05:00Hey, we San Franciscans haven't outlawed them...ye...Hey, we San Franciscans haven't outlawed them...yet. But paper bags and reusable bags are definitely less of an embarassment. Seriously, there are way too many plastic bag in this city sstill. I blame it on the cats. They make awesome waste disposal bags for their poops. I've resorted to buying lunch bags for my daily digs.<BR/><BR/>Our local Air America affiliate recently changed its name to "Green 99" and added eco programs and a vegan program to its roster. Yeah, the city is good that way, but part of it is just plain trendiness. Better than a pair of designer jeans, yes, but trends seem to change quickly. Let's hope this one sticks around.Cliffordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07981816941459227266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14761314.post-16403640870156052522007-10-01T09:23:00.000-05:002007-10-01T09:23:00.000-05:00Christine and I could do much better than we do--I...Christine and I could do much better than we do--I rack up way too many coffee stirring straws at the office plus 20 U-Boat models will eventually have to go somewhere, but we're trying.<BR/><BR/>I should shop in your grocer for sure, Kate, though I'll grow more comfortable I'm sure over time.<BR/><BR/>Did you see the bag in a tree on the Reusable Bags site, Charles? Looks like what you're describing. There are a few in the woods behind my house, I think, tossed from cars on a nearby roadway and carried by the wind I suspect.Sidneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16284680909152676159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14761314.post-12004977908178138262007-09-30T11:51:00.000-05:002007-09-30T11:51:00.000-05:00I wish the not so Jolly "Green" giant would come a...I wish the not so Jolly "Green" giant would come and stomp on some the idiots around where I live who throw out trash in plastic bags "into" the woods.

Does Christine know you called her Ed? :)<BR/><BR/>Hey, you'd fit right in where I live and it's not even California. :) We have "reusable baggers" all over here.<BR/><BR/>Of course, those aren't quite as much fun for the cats - they don't make as much noise. :)RK Sterlinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01034917381901499281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14761314.post-25671116893815277272007-09-30T00:12:00.000-05:002007-09-30T00:12:00.000-05:00Kudos to you and Christine for going green.

We've all been poisoning our world for so long we can't bestir ourselves to stop. I grieve for the earth, yet I admit I don't try hard enough to live a green lifestile.Sphinx Inkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03429797402360703839noreply@blogger.com
