I sure hope so! With gas over $4/gl, it's getting expensive driving down to Huntington for waves.

When following the same procedure for a letter to Mark Toy,however, it automatically copied the letter to Darcy again. Not sure what's going on. Thanks.

She never mentioned them in her argument only saying how much more damage it was to switch to wood products. It very much reminded me of how pro illegal immigrant speakers deliberately omit the word "illegal" when arguing for "immigrant rights". How silly it all sounded. Nevertheless, my overall feeling was that the single use plastic bag industry was fighting a losing battle and that educating shoppers will result in a paradigm shift to thinking green. And special thanks to whoever brought the stacks of reusable cotton bags. I grabbed a bunch to distribute to friends and family!
