:No prob. Your point on [[Talk:Procruste]] is an important one. We just should move the discussion elsewhere.

::where ?
:::I don't know yet. Depends on what we're discussing ;)


Biowaste and non-recyclage : yes, it is stupid. I do not know whether the grey bin is further looked into, and bio waste put apart from non degradable. I do not think so. Perhaps later, we will have an pink bin for the biowaste, and keep the grey for the non-degradable.

: I've been thinking that there should be accurate information on [[recycling]] to avoid excess work for those who recycle (eg. If [[beverage]] [[cartons]] are just [[burn]]t to produce [[heat]] and avoid [[land fill]]ing, then there is no need to wash them thoroughly, on the other hand if they are used to produce some "new" material, then having a clean recycled material would be important. This is maybe not an Consumerium issue, and should be addressed by local [[waste disposal]]/[[recycling]] authorities/operatives, but it's been on my mind. Maybe here is an thread for a new [[features|feature]]. Hmmm. I'll write some on it soon.

::yes. Please do. Idea : the thorough cleaning might not only be a recycling issue, but also a health issue. A yellow recycling bin is emptied only once a week (should I mention the garbage men did not pick it up on the 1rst of may ?), then the content waits in a storage area... Microorganisms (among others) will likely grow. Potentially a health issue for the ones handling the stuff later in the process.
:::The colour codes you are referring to are not known to me, for I live in Finland and have no idea where you live (unless I go see the apache log and trace your IP, which I really don't want to do now for I'd much rather sleep). This [[utopia]]n feature has occourred to me that it'd be interesting to compare the amount of [[packaging]] purchased per area against the amount of materials [[recycled]] in the area and have some [[law]]s on [[tax]] reduction corresponding with that figure (collective recycling tax break?). But once again, it's utopia: There are numerous reasons why such a thing would not work.


I am not sure though GM products is a good idea. As I explained, there is a confusion between the GMO (which is sometimes directly consumed) and the product generated by the GMO (which is sometimes not GM at all).

: Hmm. I'm not familiar with [[GM]] issues at all. I just feel that it's an issue to many [[consumer]]s (including myself)

Would you perhaps like to reveal where you are from and what do you do in genral. We have these couple of [[w:Internet Troll|trolls]] (eg. see: [[142.177.X.X]]) around that just use IP-addresses and it's a little annoying, since it's impossible to communicate with them in a normalised manner (talk pages, email, IM...). It's not a must, but it'd be nice. [[User:Juxo|Juxo]] 00:13 May 7, 2003 (EEST)
:I picked up a name for I feared being followed by a troll and becoming visible. A nasty one. There are other trolls I like very much. Elves and trolls can be friends sometimes. They share the same mom. Hum ? What about you ?
::[[Funded_troll]] needs your attention, House Elf.  Also a generic definition of a [[house elf]] to match the one for [[friendly troll]] would help too.
::Thank you for that!

[[Talk:Essential_projects]] asks for your attention and those of everyone you can convince, to move to [[essential projects]], which are holding us all back.
