Also, as gas hog as the cars were, we always kept our cars longer. We are living in such a wasteful society. I wish we'd get back to that old mind-set in some ways. I am so happy to see more of an awareness regarding the environment and there's so much more that we have to accomplish esp on educating the masses. I refuse to use plastic bags! I am bringing my own when I shop and when I have no room am asking for paper, then reusing that. I hate Plastic! Thank you for your website!

Maybe to get rid of tomato taste, you should have used skunk smell?<br/><br/>Man, I love the words spelled out by the wavy letters that you have to type into the "Word Verification" box in order to post comments. They fill my mind with all sorts of associations. I’ve heard that to get rid of skunk smell you use tomato juice. Maybe to get rid of tomato taste, you should have used skunk smell?

Frankly, not as successfully as you. I bulk buy with muslin bags (oats, nuts, popcorn, beans), use my hemp & swag bags for EVERY purchase, and only buy sappho hill soap b/c it lacks all packaging, and intend to follow your toilet paper example ASAP (bulk, amazon, no plastic packaging), and FINALLY started composting last night. BUT, my 7nd gen kitchen garbage bag is STILL full of plastic. Frustrating. Still, thanks for your example and inspiration.

And it goes hand in hand with <a HREF="http://leastfootprint.blogspot.com/2007/08/mason-jars-don-use-secret-handshake.html" REL="nofollow"> my post from yesterday on Least Footprint</a>. We buy a spaghetti sauce that comes in a great jar but does not accept a mason lid. Looks like one less thing to the recycle. I am going to modify my post from yesterday to include a link to this tip. Thanks for the great job you do on this stuff. <br/><br/>I do believe I have seen Hydrogen Peroxide on the web in an amber glass bottle. If I run across it I will let you know. There is a possibility also that a local pharmacy has it in bulk, since I am sure they use it to formulate some prescriptions, and could put it in a glass bottle for you. Beth
