Just a little rant - need to vent...........
Comments (10)I'd have to agree with previous posts and I have had that same experience. [g] But it doesn't usually bother me. I've had the experience that as soon as there is one or two responses, usually you get more interest in your post. I often wonder if that is because people want to see what someone else said. I would much rather have any response, rather than no response. I don't even care if someone has not had any experience and was just reminded of something funny they want to share. At least then I get a conversation out of it. Really, I think 99% of people are eager to share some experience they've had to help you out, so if I don't get a helpful response, I think that either I worded the title of my post in such a way that my question was not clear, or no one had any experience with my problem or any helpful suggestions. If I really need an answer and my post is dropping, I will bump it up and ask again or ask my question at a different forum. OR....sometimes it occurs to me to Google it! lol More often then not I get a perfectly good answer! Sometimes traffic on the forums has been a little slow....See Morerant: Garden Web and other languages.

Comments (11)New evidence is coming out that sunscreens are not actually protective. They screen the rays UVB that cause sunburn but allow the rays that cause cancers, UVA, to penetrate. I personally don't wear any sunscreen at all and am out for hours every day. What I do is stay out of the sun during the high radiation time, say noon to 4 pm. I arrange my day to work earlier and then as much time as possible between 4 pm and dark, 9:30 pm at present. Dr. Mercola has a lot of info on his site. Sunscreens also block Vitamin D formation in the skin, which is very important as Vit. D is protective against skin cancer, and an article I read recently said may be protective against childhood autism, which may be fostered by lack of sunshine/Vit. D formation, as parents think they have to protect their kids from the sun and slather them with sunscreens or stay indoors. They also should be out without ss in the low radiation parts of the day....See MoreGrrrr, I just need to rant - neighbor mowing my yard
Comments (20)You should be able to get a plat map of your property from your county's appraisal district. It is really frustrating when someone damages your property and thinks they're doing you a favor for some strange reason. Try talking to her again and explain - again - why she shouldn't mow your yard. You might also want to contact your city's code compliance department to find out if there is some code that says something about planting a shrub that large right on the property line. Maybe she shouldn't have done that (all right, we all KNOW she shouldn't have done that) according to some city code and maybe they could be removed? Also let them know about how she is damaging your property and see if they can suggest anything that can be done. You have every right to prune those photinias all the way up if you want to since they are hanging over your property. I can't stand those shrubs, especially when they are planted in the wrong space. Obviously right on the property line is the absolute wrong space....See MoreCori Ann - H0uzz violated my privacy
