***** No, that wasn't me , Lynn. I don't even see how it is possible.
Growing a small backyard garden helps, but will not sate a family

****** What should we do Lynn, what should we produce? I am in your
generation; I have never 'produced' a thing. I have owned business, made and
lost, and made again, different levels of a modern standard of living, having
never, in my life, done any physical labor for money. I think I am the norm,
rather than the exception
That's the problen I have with Obama's make-work plan (as you and

****** The problem is that the government is flat broke. Obama is talking
about hiring and paying people with non-existent monies. That is the
problem, (my opinion, only)
