Miranda, thanks for posting this. Although I didn't like facing the reality, I needed to be reminded again of what a monster Monsanto is and how they are affecting all of us and our loved ones. Have you checked out the Wikipedia blurb on this company? And it's just a small commentary. I think the only answer is for the consumer to take it into their own hands. If we really want to make an impact, we really need to do our homework and figure out if it is important enough for us to think about solely patronizing our own local organic farms for our produce (i.e. farmer's markets), and boycotting companies that are owned by monsanto. We all know that unfortunately, it's all about money and that money will control our politicians, and therefore our policies. I am going to try to see if I can find lists of companies or even products that we can at least be aware belong to Monsanto. I will start with a list of seed companies that buy some or all their seeds from Monsanto: * Territorial Seeds * Totally Tomato * Vermont Bean Seed Co. * Burpee * Cook's Garden * Johnny's Seeds * Earl May Seed * Gardens Alive * Lindenberg Seeds * Mountain Valley Seed * Park Seed * T&T Seeds * Tomato Growers Supply * Willhite Seed Co. * Nichol's * Rupp * Osborne * Snow * Stokes * Jungs * R.H. Shumway * The Vermont Bean Seed Company * Seeds for the World * Seymour's Selected Seeds * HPS * Roots and Rhizomes * McClure and Zimmerman Quality Bulb Brokers * Spring Hill Nurseries * Breck's Bulbs * Audubon Workshop * Flower of the Month Club * Wayside Gardens * Park Bulbs * Park's Countryside Garden This year I bought some of my seeds from burpee and park seed. I have bought from Tomato Grower's supply in the past. No more for me. No more roundup for me. Let's see what companies or products we can find. Anyone game? Just so we can at least make educated choices. Anna

This was on the Today show yesterday. I was watching showbiz tonight & they had them doing the dance on the Today show. When I watched the video yesterday my eyes were rolling. When I watched it last night (the Today show version minus wedding attire) and again this morning, I still rolled my eyes. I think that if the song was shortened it may have had a different affect, but it was a bit too long; I wondered how hot, thirsty they all were from dancing up the isle, then running through the hall back to the main door to do it again. I also think if the dancing was a little better it would have made a difference; unless it was supposed to look like a bunch of men that couldn't dance and women that partially could. I give everyone credit for trying to be original but it's getting to be expected to see a choreographed dance at some part of the wedding. Next we will see the bride & her father along with groom & his mother choreographed. I loved my last wedding. Hubby & I went to Cypress Gardens in FL, just the 2 of us. The day was about us.

I am having the same problem too. I get audio but the video takes forever to load and doesn't really play at all - stays frozen. I have a couple of guys on another computer forum working on my problem. I used to be able to watch the game drives at Wildearth.tv but they picture is now frozen for me. They seem to think it has something to do with my Flash programme. They are taking me through a lot of steps to determine what is wrong with my Flash player. I am headed there right now to see what tests they want me to do next. Anne

After watching the video and reading the comments here, I was curious and looked up flame retardant upholstery foam. Unbeknownst to me, there is a move to keep flame retardants out of the foam by those who are concerned about excess exposure to chemicals. I understand that position and it makes me wonder where the balance is in all of this. I generally prefer natural materials but on there is also a point with things such as fabrics for pillows, upholstery, etc., how much control are you going to have. Then there is carpet, and, and, and... I honestly wish there was more information on the topic because it seems like there is a lot to dig into.
