Jane Anne, thankis for this reminder, I know I'm not very good at remembering different groups rules since I never post directly to the group but from within the blog.  I've got to get better at that and stay with the program.  thanks for keeping us(me) honest... ;-)

I had a post removed which I had hoped would benefit ALL green folks in RE.  I don't understand why.  NO copy & paste, no links.  It is on topic because it is current for all who use computers.  It was a question that I had hoped would foster communication amongst green-all-stars. 

Please contact me directly and explain.  I did read the guidelines first! BrownstoneArts@me.com

Hi Jane Anne!

Just found your group!

As a green sustainable environmental business owner, this will be my new home on AR!!!

I am working on a manufacturing negotiation that would be making sustainable building products on our tribal reservation and am always keeping my eye on the most innovative products and technologies. So I will be happy to contribute anything I can to help spread the word on all the neat new stuff out there!!!

Has anyone else heard about that MIT professor that created a super powered battery that's completely organic and bio-degradable??? !!! Base it on the layers of the abaloney shell and is made from bacteria that's stacked back to back!!!

Hi janeAnne, Thanks for inviting me to join the group--I have read over the Guidelines and Rules, and I will now post my series of Green posts to the group.  I guess I will have to find some pictures to make them more interesting!  : )

Hi JaneAnn

I've made my first post to this group today.  Lots of good information here. I note that the prohibition against advertising in pretty much ignored.  I see several posts that are blatant sales pitches for properties offered.  Hmmmm.

I refrained from making a pitch for my own company and will continue to do so. I figure that if someone wants to use my services, they will check out my AR profile and contact me there.

I've only been a member of this group 30 minutes and already came across a recent blog for advertising.  I didn't want to give him any points so I didn't comment.  Aggh!
