1. The forum & main site will stay up indefinitely after MTurk shuts down in case anyone needs anything. I assume a handful of things will break after MTurk vaporizes & I'll fix it as fast as I can to keep the two main parts of the site online.

    I had guineas, my last one died recently. They did lower the tick population a lot when there were a whole flock of them but they are a bit stupid and the loudest things ever. I don't think I would want them again.

    I'm really not sure I'm convinced residential spraying really matters like that, but I admit I'm pretty ignorant on the subject.

    If someone could prove to me residential matters, and corporate spraying was banned, I'd quit. Otherwise, sorry but if some jackass with a farm is allowed to destroy the planet I'm going to make my little plot as enjoyable as I can :dunno:

    Then again I'm the heartless monster who steals bonuses so maybe don't listen to me :p

    My cat does the same thing. She brings me every item of clothing from my closet that she can reach. Whole blankets and towels, she drags up onto the bed or to wherever I am.

    My dog does this with blankets and occasionally Gregor. Just drags them out of their spot so he can lie down on them even though he has his own blanket and a couch that pretty much no one but him uses.

    TBH I'm on the same page as you most of the way. But at the end of the day, I also believe that it only takes one action at a time to make a difference. My wife and I don't take straws at restaurants. What's 2 straws, afterall? But if we go out 100 times a year (including CFA & Chipotle :D) that's 200 straws. And maybe somebody sees us and makes a decision to go without also...no we're talking 300 straws etc etc etc. 300 straws may not matter, but then again...maybe it does.

    Just my unsolicited two cents

    Bearnie brings me things of value to him: can tabs, milk rings, spare change, once my own nose ring he had stolen months before.

    Oh! He ripped the eyes off my fuzzy monster slippers and presented them to me. He was proud. I appreciate the effort.

    Nah I'm down w/ that. I try a little, just not fanatical about it.

    Not spraying the bushes when the bees are nomming == no skin off my back, I'll wait.
    Not spraying whatsoever on the off chance some bee who lands in the middle of my grass doesn't kick the bucket? Sorry planet, we're at an impasse here. Next big bang / creation event don't make mosquitos & gnats and we wont have this problem :p lol
    You can make a difference.. find them, & murder them :eek:
