After checking my facts it appears alt.simpleliving is fabricated
by some deviate mental process.  It should have been:
alt.lifestyle.simplicity.  Thanks for catching this.

This is both funny and sad.  I wonder what will happen to people
like this in time of crisis.  It is interesting to read about
the history of various catastrophes and cultural failures and
see how the people thought just before the event.  In most
cases the population ignored the problem until it was too late.

Anyway, those big 4x4 pickups are a status vehicle around here and
you see them often.  Not a scratch anywhere and often being driven
by one person getting groceries.  What a waste of resources.

The following was posted to a solar energy newsgroup.  I've not
checked it yet.

An ozone hole was forming over the eastern seaboard over The United States and
Canada on November 26,1999. New images were added to our website 12Dec99 9:30
p.m. concerning this and additional images of the ozone hole over Europe.
