All you can say in this site's defence is that it, rather than reality, occupies the warped minds of some of the planet's most twisted people; gods know what they would get up to if it wasn't here.  In these arguably insane times, any lessening or attenuation of madness is maybe something to be thankful for.

That's good info.

I don't have it in front of me, but there's also something about how spending food dollars on locally-grown food has over 200% effect on stimulating the local economy.

I wish there was locally grown food...where I live they literally farm lawns.  Grass farms.  Hundreds of acres of lawns around where I live on what is otherwise perfectly good farmland, replete with irrigation canals.

More proof that people are fucking crazy.
"I'm guessing it was January 2007, a meeting in Bethesda, we got a bag of bees and just started smashing them on the desk," Charles Wick said. "It was very complicated."

There are local food growers here.  There's farmers' markets four days a week, and one is up near you guys.


There's the lawn thing too, of course, but there is also the farmrrs' markets.
