Things I Never Knew Existed, Afterlife Edition
Posted by: Jeff Kupperman Sun, 12 Oct 2008 19:41:20 GMT
I had a "wow, I never would have thought of that" moment at the Community Systems Foundation meeting yesterday when one of the attendees brought up his business in "green burials." The idea is if you're trying to minimize your final impact on the earth, instead of cremation, you choose a cemetery with a mission of preserving open, natural space. The argument is that -- in the U.S. these days at least -- no one is going to buy a cemetery and put a shopping mall on the land. Of course, looking historically and globally, this hasn't exactly been true... Interesting idea, though.

"When you outlaw guns in a certain area, the only people who follow that are law-abiding citizens, and everybody else ignores it," said the superintendent of schools in Harrold, Texas, where school employees are now allowed to carry concealed weapons. (Education Week, Sept. 3)

Cornelia, you should be more careful about who you lend your scooter to!
