Doggedly searching for the crux of the biscuit.
The apoprietor of these parts emails me of these, um, innovators then fails to blog about them. Maybe he just doesn't want to tread on my turf? Dunno.
Since my boss walked down the hall at 1:30 and said "Go home" (yes, unbelievable as it may seem, I am apparently employable) I actually have a few moments to visit the forum.
While I'm here, in other news, congressional Democrats actually showed some spine but not until after significant damage had already been done.
And more: It's long been my lament that we heavily subsidize clearcutting of our National Forests, in order to make paper products artificially cheap, advantaging those who would stuff my mailbox full of unwanted crap. But hey, at least those catalogs can... um... be... recycled... ?... Oy.
{heresy}Recycling is just a less bad way of wasting{/heresy}.
I will give this a try, however.
Happy new year, Froz! That waste management link is a great one.
Are you the person who was trying to compost an allegedly biodegradable plastic container? How is that going?

This fits in perfectly with Adam Kotsko's current blog describing how with neoliberalism, the phone company excessively packages its phones then the burden is on the consumer to sift through all the crap in the name of environmentalism.
Happy, Merry, Jolly to you, too. The plastic container is still recognizable but the fractured pieces are getting softer, which is a good sign.
