no - I do it the old fashioned way.  I must admit that the plethora

under the a sucker born every minute category; I think one had a 
heated "oven."


Cheryl,

Victory Garden had composters on this past weekend.  It seems they do a good 
job for tiny city gardens.  If you have a some space they do appear to be a 
great nuisance plus you need to chop up the waste.  New host talks to the 
audience as if you are half an idiot.  There is an accented tool expert also. 
 He also does the damnedest  presentation.  If you need help buying a trowel, 
he is your guy.  I am disappointed with the new incarnation of VG.  It makes 
sense, I suppose, that a program supported by commercials (PBS does have 
commercials) will try to reach the widest possible audience.  Perhaps 
gardening is not for TV.
