I am laughing. Seattle, WA is outlawing plastic bags.

For years they would ask. "paper or plastic? " The common wisdom was that if you wasted a tree to haul your groceries home, you were selfishly destroying the environment, that trees were necessary in order to breathe (I wonder how folks breath in the dessert) and on and on.

Being from the timber industry, we knew it was a bunch of hooey, but they wouldn't listen then.

Thank heavens, times change. lol!

Sounds like it might be time to stock up on reusable grocery bags. I keep mine on my pantry door:

Ann and David ,

You are both right--no waiting necessary.

Now I am waiting for them to decree that hybrid cars are ruining the environment. Global cooling will be a problem and the hybrids will be the cause.

The thing about the grocery bag dilemma is that it is an example of a circumstance which can be illuminated by watching the following little clip:

Bummer. Doesn't seem to work. Try this:

Ann,

When you are right, you are so right.
