   Hello All   
       I went to the 'dump' today...I felt like the Lone-a-Ranger....to the   
   dump the dump, the dump, dump, dump....ah, sorry about that...I do get   
   carried away some times.   
       In front of us was a trailer that had four perfectly good chairs in it.   
   Once I was inside the drop area, I approached (ran up to) the people in the   
   truck and told them about a new recycling ground roots effort that was   
   happening and that they did not have to throw those chairs away. Instead,   
   they could Freecycle them.   
       They looked at me wondering, I am sure, why the Lone-a-Ranger was there   
   in the dump! I myself was dump founded! They did not understand and neither   
   did I.   
       They did not know why I (the Lone-a-Ranger) was there and I could not   
   understand why they were throwing away four perfectly good chairs.   
       As a side note:   
       You all know where those chairs go, don't you....?   
       "Attention all you people in Cache Creek....there are four perfectly   
   good chairs on the way. Trust me, I saw them. Now, don't you take this   
   sitting down...at least not until the chairs arrive".   
       Well, anyway, I want to tell you all about this site:   
   http://freecycle.org   
       Sending four perfectly good chairs to a black hole in Cache Creek is, to   
   me, idiotic. Give them to the Sally Ann, a local charity, anyone who wants   
   them. Don't just waste them. Don't just send them to a black hole called a   
   land fill!   
       Could it be that there is standing room only, in Cache Creek? Is that   
   why the chairs are going there, to provide more seating? Well, I'll be!   
   Never thought of that until now.

   PS: Freecycle is all across the States and Canada, Australia and...Ethiopia.   
   Ethiopia? Now that is not funny! http://www.freecycle.org
