the weeds" arizona 'weeds' are tuff little critters. it took
multiple oil changes. honeywell used to dump all industrial cleaning
fluids down an old abandoned water well on their old property. we've
come a long ways baby.

heard of this saying too! It does make mankind look reeeeeeally bad!
But its our own fault. An example -I've been told by my stepfather

look at Niagara Falls. The water before and directly after
the falls is
nice and clear, but a few miles down, on the American side,
it is already
polluted.
I 'know' the factory I used to work for
dumped poisoness liquids on the
ground along the RR tracks. It was
not the 55 gal. barrel type amount, but
enough to see it on the ground and
to seep thru the ground. Everytime I see
the Missouri River, I
wonder how it must have looked to the first white-man
explorers, who said
it was clear to the bottom.
Yeah, if you think about it a lot, or even
a little, you get the feeling
that something has to give and it will
probably be 'us'.
