How do you spell INSANITY?
 
What is mainstream media saying about all this? Are they white-washing all 
this and similar bailouts?  Is anyone asking WHY - what is going on so 
horrible under the surface that is leading to these insane bankrupt 
decisions, and what are the consequences?

THANKS for the tips.  Why not just start the seeds directly in the newspaper 
cups?
 
I have 3 external flashes that I keep on me when I'm away in the event of a 
home fire, and 2 huge external backup drives for double safety in the event 
of any failures of the backups....as CHIT happens....  And with all that I 
accidentally forgot to back up one important file..... which must have gotten 
fried or something, because I could not even copy that file off using a dos> 
prompt.   I wasn't able to turn on the computer in any way, except to get to 
as DOS prompt.... Fortunatly, I still remembered how to navigate my way 
around that way.
 
The last thing I did was install a windows update.....  They must have had a 
number of similiar problems, because when I called, instead of the usual ask 
10,000 questions

> 2)  STARTER KIT FOR SEEDS - got this tip this a/m at the gym.  Cut a few
sheets of newspaper into strips the same width as you would want a starter cup
for seed(lings).  Wet the paper, then roll into the desired width.  Let dry.  
No
need to remove at planting time.

Glad to see you back. Get a Flash or external HD and back your data up!

I make seed cups this way. I usually rummage a cardboard box that beer
and sodas come in from a dumpster. They are about the size of two 6
packs and a couple of inches deep. Fill with soil and start the seeds
in that. About the time they get the first true leaves, I'm transplant
to newspaper cups. If you put those cups tightly in to a box as high
as they are, they don't dry off so quickly.

To make them I get a tin can the size I want. Cut newspaper a little
wider than the height of the can. Roll the newspaper on the can
loosely. Fold the bottom up and if you can wet the bottom a little it
helps. Slide the can out and fill with your soil.

THANKS for the tips.  Why not just start the seeds directly in the newspaper 
cups?
 
I have 3 external flashes that I keep on me when I'm away in the event of a 
home fire, and 2 huge external backup drives for double safety in the event 
of any failures of the backups....as CHIT happens....  And with all that I 
accidentally forgot to back up one important file..... which must have gotten 
fried or something, because I could not even copy that file off using a dos> 
prompt.   I wasn't able to turn on the computer in any way, except to get to 
as DOS prompt.... Fortunatly, I still remembered how to navigate my way 
around that way.
 
The last thing I did was install a windows update.....  They must have had a 
number of similiar problems, because when I called, instead of the usual ask 
10,000 questions from the script....

> 2)  STARTER KIT FOR SEEDS - got this tip this a/m at the gym.  Cut a few
sheets of newspaper into strips the same width as you would want a starter cup
for seed(lings).  Wet the paper, then roll into the desired width.  Let dry.  
No
need to remove at planting time.

Glad to see you back. Get a Flash or external HD and back your data up!

I make seed cups this way. I usually rummage a cardboard box that beer
and sodas come in from a dumpster. They are about the size of two 6
packs and a couple of inches deep. Fill with soil and start the seeds
in that. About the time they get the first true leaves, I'm transplant
to newspaper cups. If you put those cups tightly in to a box as high
as they are, they don't dry off so quickly.

To make them I get a tin can the size I want. Cut newspaper a little
wider than the height of the can. Roll the newspaper on the can
loosely. Fold the bottom up and if you can wet the bottom a little it
helps. Slide the can out and fill with your soil.

THANKS for the tips.  Why not just start the seeds directly in the newspaper 
cups?
 
I have 3 external flashes that I keep on me when I'm away in the event of a 
home fire, and 2 huge external backup drives for double safety in the event 
of any failures of the backups....as CHIT happens....  And with all that I 
accidentally forgot to back up one important file..... which must have gotten 
fried or something, because I could not even copy that file off using a dos> 
prompt.   I wasn't able to turn on the computer in any way, except to get to 
as DOS prompt.... Fortunatly, I still remembered how to navigate my way 
around that way.
 
The last thing I did was install a windows update.....  They must have had a 
number of similiar problems, because when I called, instead of the usual ask 
10,000 questions from the script.... they already knew to skip

> 2)  STARTER KIT FOR SEEDS - got this tip this a/m at the gym.  Cut a few
sheets of newspaper into strips the same width as you would want a starter cup
for seed(lings).  Wet the paper, then roll into the desired width.  Let dry.  
No
need to remove at planting time.

Glad to see you back. Get a Flash or external HD and back your data up!

I make seed cups this way. I usually rummage a cardboard box that beer
and sodas come in from a dumpster. They are about the size of two 6
packs and a couple of inches deep. Fill with soil and start the seeds
in that. About the time they get the first true leaves, I'm transplant
to newspaper cups. If you put those cups tightly in to a box as high
as they are, they don't dry off so quickly.

To make them I get a tin can the size I want. Cut newspaper a little
wider than the height of the can. Roll the newspaper on the can
loosely. Fold the bottom up and if you can wet the bottom a little it
helps. Slide the can out and fill with your soil.

I make seed cups this way. I usually rummage a cardboard box that beer
and sodas come in from a dumpster. They are about the size of two 6
packs and a couple of inches deep. Fill with soil and start the seeds
in that. About the time they get the first true leaves, I'm transplant
to newspaper cups. If you put those cups tightly in to a box as high
as they are, they don't dry off so quickly.

To make them I get a tin can the size I want. Cut newspaper a little
wider than the height of the can. Roll the newspaper on the can
loosely. Fold the bottom up and if you can wet the bottom a little it
helps. Slide the can out and fill with your soil.

THANKS for the tips.  Why not just start the seeds directly in the newspaper 
cups?
If you are putting the newspaper cups into a cardboard box during growing, 
wouldn't the cardboard "mush" from dampness?

because when I called support, instead of the usual ask 10,000 questions from 
the script routine.... they already knew to skip right to format hard drive.  
 Which I can do myself, but couldn't get the CD that came with the computer 
to boot.
 
And they even called back, and have me monitoring something else that is 
unusual.

You absolutely can. I like to start in flats, just to save space at
the beginning, easier to keep them warm, etc. Also, I can pick the
best looking seedlings to go into the cups.

I got some really, really bad spyware in my computer a few weeks ago.
I thought I was going to lose it and did a backup. I'm the worst at
backing up.
