dapper, You sure can use Mushroom compost in March and I'm not sure why Cowgirl says that it will heat up if you pile it up. I watched an episode of Dirty Jobs a couple years ago where they were at a Mushroom Farm. The way they made they're compost was simple. It was Horse manure, lots of Straw, Urea and water. The Urea and water was used to get the process started then they turned it everyday until the pile became that nice dark stuff we call compost. Here's the thing... If the stuff Mushroom farms were using wasn't finished, I'd say it could get hot if piled up, but I don't see how any compost will get hot if it's finished. And if it's not finished and you want to stop the heating process, you could add some Lime. I've seen Mushroom compost (I've got a few mushroom farms around me) and the stuff looks like super rich and dark dirt. There's also a place that resells spent Mushroom compost and I've never seen any of their piles steaming.

I use different names and passwords. I have never used my name, sorry I am not really Shannon I just liked the name. I may reveal a lot of personal stuff but don't think anyone would find me any sooner than if they hired a private eye. I feel really bad for my dd. When you google her name a really, really hot 20ish girl from Vegas pops up. It worries me that some freak out there might think that is really my dd. No matter how much I have tried to tell her and her friends about personal info online I am always amazed at how much they put out there. Which is why we are trying so hard to make sure she knows about creepy stuff in case she tries to have a myspace or whatnot without our knowledge. GD- is that you in your other career? Unfortunately my dh has a common name. A local child support agency decided to search every guy with that name in CA and start garnishing taxes, wages etc. They served 5 different guys, non of which had same soc sec as offending dad. When we asked why they did not bother to at least check the soc sec number to see if they had the right guy they said "they just don't have the manpower". After speaking with the Attorney General's office we got the county to send us a letter admitting what they did and that they were wrong and would take responsibility for any harm it might cause. Dh's info got mixed up in the credit bureaus with the offending dad. It has taken years of checking every few months to make sure my dh's info stays unmixed up with the bad dad.

I am sorry i seem to have been a bit misinformed i was surer i was right ,but the older 1.0,and 1.1 should still play futur discs it will just lack the full use of special features,i just read this article on cnet. (The easiest way to avoid all these headaches is to buy a Profile 2.0 player, which is currently the most future-proof option there is. In particular, we recommend the PS3--not only is it the best Blu-ray player according to our reviews, but it also has traditionally been updated with new features before other Blu-ray players. Additionally, because the PS3 has such a fast processor inside, we've found that special features just work better, with faster load times and smoother playback. If you're the kind of person that never fiddles with special features and you've found a great deal on a Profile 1.1 player, there's no reason not to buy it as long as you know what you're giving up. Profile 1.1 players should have no problems playing back future Blu-ray movies, you're just won't be able to get additional content online. Profile 1.0 players are increasingly rare these days, so unless you find a fantastic deal, you can probably find a Profile 1.1 player for a similar price.) for some morer info check out cnet for yourself ,again sorry for the bad info,will not happen again!

Sheri, I listened to the song and I like the singer's voice and the music, but I'm not sure that I would've ever picked up on the association of that song with Silverstein's book, except for the title. Was it something that immediately came to you? I'm wondering now if the book was actually aimed at children or adolescent readers in the first place. I know it was marketed as such and can be found in children's sections of bookstores and libraries, and the illustrations are cartoon-type drawings that might draw young readers to it; but somehow it doesn't seem like a story that would arrest many young readers I've known, except perhaps the most sensitive and perceptive ones. Perhaps I'm wrong, but it seems more to me to be a book for adult readers that just happens to look like a kids' book. After reading the synopsis and reviews of Major Pettigrew's Last Stand, I think I'll give it a pass. Iris, I think leaving out Sir Arthur Conan Doyle is a shame, but luckily his popularity isn't dependent on some snooty writers' list. I suspect that most of the lists by writers who claim such-and-such classics influenced them are disingenuous. If they weren't afraid of appearing less than well read, they might admit their main influences were more along the lines of pulp fiction. Ever notice how similar these danged lists always are? I think they just copy each other.
