And I think it has to be an inaccurate description as well.

I am also the proud new owner of a Broadband Pack.. Still in its box........

Ive done pretty well without it all things considered. If I should perk up with some * DESPERATELY NEEDED SPREADING* ideas I may open said box and

begin reading the instructionsssss. I think Im in the throes of Political Forum Burnout. Be gentle.

The best thing I love about right wingers is how The Drudge Report is such a cash cow for us and how useless pop-up blockers have become.

like how NPR was coopted by the cia
when radio free eurpoe became an anachronism. Get your USA propaganda while listening to top 40 classical interspersed with corporate press releases dressed up as news stories.

Don't worry, they've already pegged your demographic and they are designing a car *just *for * you.

I shit you not.

Feel like living off the grid? We've got sometihng for you too.

I shop Gaiam regularly.

So do I. It's really fun to watch as my mailman scratches his head when I get stuff from them and cheaper than dirt on the same day.

footfootfoot · 01-23-2006, 11:26 AM

That is why you guys are so powerful!

I have been considering Gaiam's solar cell phone charger kit ... I have a hand crank one as part of my end of the world supplies, but it's a rather time-consuming process to actually get it to charge the battery to any significant degree. The solar one is a set it and forget it device. Of course, if the end of the world comes by the sun going out, the handcrank one will be the way to go.

Decisions, decisions.

Who ya gonna call?

A pox on the first one that says Ghostbusters

Bruce is right. When the big battle comes, without the solar satellite uplink you probably won't have much service. Better to consider the personal air purifier to help clear away the smoke while firing your various weapons. I'm sure combustion by products of even smokeless powder cannot be good for you.

Also, when folded into thirds (my special number) the organic egyptian cotton towels make nice recoil absorbers for those prolonged shooting days.

Afterwards, you can soak your shoulder in a nice warm mineral soak, while listening to the soothing sounds of tropical rainforest, wind in the pines or waves gently lapping at the shore.

(actually, I was thinking more on the order of whenever I actually make it to a disaster scene ... being able to charge a cell phone is actually a big deal under those circumstances, assuming the cell towers remain intact and in operation. Often, they bring in portables. They did for Shanksville and Quecreek Mine, anyway, since both incidents occured in fairly remote locations with poor cell coverage)

But I really do like the idea of an aromatherapy bath to celebrate the fall of civilization as we know it.

In the UK (where poster is) I don't think truth is a defense to a libel action. Nor does Godwin's Law particularly relate to the percieved tone involved.

maffick · 01-24-2006, 03:31 PM

I prefered the name "Real Goods". I can't pronounce "Gaiam"....

xoxoxoBruce · 01-24-2006, 09:52 PM

Hi maffick, welcome to the Cellar.

Real Goods was one of the names that gathered under the Gaiam banner in order to survive. I got there through Seventh Generation.
I think it's pronounced like it's spelled; Ga - I - am.

footfootfoot · 01-24-2006, 10:48 PM

guy am is how I hear it.

(from the people in my head)

And that would be the aroma of... VICTORY!

Tough thread. Bebop said "nazi" and it's still alive and kicking (rather than waving an arm).
