Thanks for the tip. Actually, I do have plans to start a veggie garden but my wife and I are planning on moving (much) closer to town in the next 6 months so I've put off doing anything to the house/yard that we can't take with us.
Oh yea, I forgot one thing we already do, reusable shopping bags.

Well, W is already working hard on population reduction in the third world "by other means" but those damn liberals keep getting in his way.
