  A sip of water on a hot day

  Yes, yes, I am so totally on the same page about the seemingly relentless onslaught of negative conservation news, and I appreciate your sharing this upbeat story. Keep 'em coming!On An ecotourism success story posted 2 years, 8 months ago 6 Responses

  You breakin' my heart!

  
  Well first of all, soy sauce is my friend, big time! I realize it may be unrealistic to try to sell you on it, but actually, it's not as salty as salt, if you know what I mean. Less concentrated, that is.

  Here is a thought: consider the humble potato. In fact, don't just consider it. Cut it into three pieces and then put thin slices of garlic against the skin, wrap up in aluminum foil and bake.

  When it's done, glop some sour cream and a splash of soy sauce on top. Ohhhhhhh it's so good! Cheap and easy, too!On Seriously, isn't it just gross? posted 2 years, 8 months ago 44 Responses

  XEBRA: Ornamental, not too useful

  
  Hey there, <acampbell>! I agree that it's a dream not to have to buy gas and just plug that cute little car in overnight. But as I understand it, the car goes only about 25 miles before it has to be charged up. What about the person who has a longer commute to work than you apparently have? Don't get me wrong, I support the idea of such cars, but as the original poster mentioned, there are a number of problems here that need to be addressed before the vehicles will be practical for most people.On Electric motocycles may be bridge to electric cars posted 2 years, 8 months ago 18 Responses

  I'm a vegetarian, but interested....

  
  I think it's fascinating that the folks at Field & Stream seem to be on board with this, and I agree that they have a vast constituency who would be far more likely to listen to F&S than some wild-eyed tree-hugging vegetarian like myself. (Well, not so wild-eyed, but you get the idea.) Glad to hear it!On Conservative conservationists posted 2 years, 8 months ago 1 Response
