Glad that's been oficially debunked. And here I thought clean air was important. More carbon (dioxide) for everyone. More fossil fuel consumption for the good of big oil.

So what if it's a bunch of hooey? Do you not all deserve clean and usable air? I think I do. No wait, someone else has to do my thinking. Sorry.

JW's suddenly love me(!) !!!

as many of you know, when i left the borg i did the perfect fade by emigrating half way accorss the globe.

i have never given out my new address ( the overseass postal service... totaly crap, what can you do huh;) i have also changed my email account too and my phone number.

therefore i have effectively disapeared!

Agreed. Ignore them and ignore the email. If the emails don't automatically bounce back, that is an indication to them that you still use the account. You are still traceable. Close the account and they should get the message.

BTW I have found a better way to recycle WT flyers. On my way to the beach to my daily walk, I pass a KH and drop them off at their front door with a note from SATAN!

The devil you say!

What I'm Going to Do About Climate Change!

i know many here are very passionate about this subject, and i must admit both sides have made me think about it more than i would have normally.. but in the final analysis i'm disposed to do absolutely nothing about it and this is my reasoning on it.. we are all going to die some day, and realistically there is not much we can do about it, so why worry about some future time when the planet might have less space on it for humans to live there is nothing i can do to make a difference anyway.

what is going to happen will happen my worrying about it isn't going to change anything.. the planet is already over populated because of our longer life span and medical advancements.

we can't keep multiplying like we have and expect things to just keep on going like they are going without any serious repercussions to our species.

Last year we had way too much snow at this time. This year the Olympic Committee is having to helicopter in snow. It's all gon and they have to fill the area with straw.

Last July 29, 2009, Vancouver had the hottest day ever in recorded history.

Perhaps nothing can be done, but don't we all deserve clean, balanced air to breath? And what's up with endless dalays in bringing out fuel effecient cars, like the Volt? Wh are we stuck with fossil fueled cars in the 21st century? $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$. BIG oil?

I told my husband that I'm going to throw away my no blood card

i discussed my view with him and he understood the point i made but said that until he receives further instruction from the gb he will still refuse a transfusion.

i asked him if he would deny me a blood transfusion if i needed one and he said, "i don't know.

i went to lunch with my non-jw aunt and cousin and told them about the conversation.

I do not know where my blood goes, but I know someone out there gets help. We do not get paid in Canada, contrary to a former JW friend. Not in money anyway.

If you have no medical issues, iron levels are ok, and are not diabetic, CANTLEAVE, please try. The cookies are great.

So what do you call it when a free enterprise government ruins a world economy?

Quote from someone above" and they are inherently evil, " One cannot assume that all people are evil. Most are taught.

I was taught to be kind by my mother who was very religious. I donated blood and money last Saturday. I don't think that is evil.

When a country has nothing, we should do nothing to help? I hope that is a minority.

Leaf Blowers - How much do they pollute?

by Elsewhere in

jw

a 2000 report by the california epa determined that the average residential leaf blower produces 145 times more hydrocarbons, 7.5 times more carbon monoxide, and 11 times more particulate matter in one hour than a 1999-2000 light duty vehicle driven at 30 mph, getting 15 miles to the gallon.. .

in summary:.

using a leaf blower for one hour produces as much pollution as driving an old truck 4,350 miles.

Hello FF. I remove most because here in Vancouver, if I did that all that would be left would be moss. Too wet here.

Otherwise I would. I would prefer to shred these huge leaves before they rot.

you didn't make yourself that way and you weren't "just born" that way.

your personality will be changed by the world, there is no getting around it.

i have loved you since before you were born.

Carla is absolutely right on the money! The works of some old fossils - inaccurate. The word of God - accurate. Seems an easy choice here.

The society may have been inspired by the Bible, but show me where it states that disfellowshipping and shunning is recommended in the scriptures?

And so what if it did anyway? It's all about mind control. Real Estate actually.
