Re: Tires


Libby -- what are your reasons for planting in tires? Do they keep the
s.potatoes warmer? Give bigger crops?

And keep in mind that many environmentally caused diseases don't "make you
sick" for many years after a long-term exposure, and even then the
scientists are often not sure what the cause was. Cancer of all kinds, but
especially leukemia, which is on such a tremendous up-swing in severity, is
one of those diseases which springs to mind...
