It is foolishness to think we can recycle all this stuff. My family taught us to “use it up, wear it out, make it do, or do without”. I struggle to find ways to avoid participating in the problem, but we can at least buy our laundry detergent in sheet form in cardboard boxes. Awareness that we are fooling ourselves is the first step toward change. Thanks for letting us know, Andy. I am going to try to do better in this regard.

I read this article by Any C. and I quote "As boondoggles go, even the strident enviros with the Gaviota Coast Conservancy (GCC) saw this pig in a poke coming down the pike and they are not buying the operator error excuse" Boondoggle is a common term, NAVSpeak used in US Navy to describe "An inefficient meeting, event, or evolution" Here in Santa Barbara Boondoggle describes the Santa Barbara "So-Called-Leaders" utter incompetence if not downrigth Corruption. From Trash to Law Enforcement to the entire Santa Barbara legal system "Boondoggle" is Standard Operating Procudure.

You can put lipstick on a Pig but it is still is a Pig and welcome to Santa Barbara Pig Pen and it's Pigs.
