Re: Peat moss

Hi Chris.  Funny you should mention this.  I was just reading 
through the mail and I have a note here from someone who sent me 
a note to forward to Jenn on behalf of that self-same 
organization, requesting that I post the note and present the 
"real facts".   (Confusing enough?  Me too.  I don't know why 
this guy can't send his own mail.  Or this woman speak for 
herself instead of the guy.  sheesh!)

Frankly, I'd love to get the Peat Moss Association folks (NOT 
the PR people, which I suspect this woman is ... having worked 
for a number of less than environmentally friendly corporations 
in my time, one quickly recognizes the jargon ... sorta pat) and 
the Wetlands Conservation Council in an IRC room or a Mining 
Company chat or something similar and let them debate.  I find I 
learn a great deal from such roundtable discussions/debates.  
I tend to find what I consider to be "realistic" somewhere in 
the middle.  :)

Let me work on this.  I might be able to arrange it.  Is there 
any general interest?  PLEASE don't "yea" or "nay" on the lists, 
please.  All the listowners will kill me.  And rightfully so.  A 
private note will do nicely.  If there is interest, I'll pursue 
it.

In the meantime, I will forward this note from the Peat Moss 
folks momentarily.
