While out in the car earlier we heard a discussion on NPR of a new on-line service, called CatalogChoice.org, where you can sign up (you have to create an account) and then opt out of all those catalogs that fill up your recycle bins.
<br><br>I just signed up and, in not more than about 6 or 7 minutes, opted out of HP, Dell, Crutchfield, REI, and Plow & Hearth. Easy as pie. I confess I am having serious advance withdrawal pangs over the thought of not browsing those Crutchfield catalogs in the future, but I know that I, and the world, are better off for it. Still pondering
L.L. Beans, though. <br><br>I've added the link to the "Ideas on Reducing Waste & Recycling More" page on the Wiki: <a href="http://rpwiki.wetpaint.com/page/Ideas+on+Reducing+Waste+%26+Recycling+More">http://rpwiki.wetpaint.com/page/Ideas+on+Reducing+Waste+%26+Recycling+More
</a>. That way, if you get the time to look into this in a few days or weeks or months from now, you don't have to fish through the TownTalk archives. All you have to do is go to the Wiki (<a href="http://rpwiki.wetpaint.com">
rpwiki.wetpaint.com</a>) and search on "catalog" and you'll find the link for CatalogChoice.com.<br clear="all"><br>-- <br>"A budget is a moral document." --Jim Wallis <br><br>"Don't tell me what you value, show me your budget, and I'll tell you what you value." --Sen. Joe Biden
