      I don't know, but I heard their natural habitat is An Office, which might explain why I don't have one.

        Just curious to know how many of us are conservative about using printing papers ? I noticed in last one year I hardly use one pack of printer paper.I try to avoid printing paper as much as I can. I even reuse the margin of printed paper to do some note taking or calculation to make sure I don't waste it. Whenever I print something I feel guilt of cutting down more trees. Am I being too conservative to use paper ?

        You should use more. Some trees are grown specifically for processing into paper. If nobody uses paper, their very existence will have been in vain. They will become depressed and as a result will become more susceptible to diseases. Living so close to each other, as they do, these diseases will spread extremely rapidly, decimating entire forests. All because you were too frugal in your use of paper. You should be ashamed of yourself! :-D

          What you should be doing is printing and disseminating information on how to economincally purify salt water and create forests in the vast deserts on this planet. :)

                  When working as a programmer only ever printed stuff at work. I've never needed to do printing on my own account. Then I started an open university course last year and they require the essays and thesis as hard copies, so I had to get one. Tested it and will probably get aroung to printing something towards the end of next year. Stupid thing is that they mark the essays ( don't know about the thesis, don't even know what it'll be about yet. ) from the word files well OpenOffice saved as word files. The exam board apparently cant read computer screens so they have to have a hard copy. Suppose I shouldn't use any relatively new words then either.

                                The same banks who are GREEN because they offer e-statements (as opposed to 2 sheets a month) have absolutely no qualms about sending unsolicited crap (flyers, credit checks, loan offers, stupid agreement changes etc.) in the post. The paper savings from going the e-statement route is probably less than 10%! :sigh:

                                        I avoid printing everything that can be saved digitally. Normally, I only print forms/contracts and stuff that must have a hard copy. Besides, I only purchase recycled paper.

                                          The same banks who are GREEN because they offer e-statements (as opposed to 2 sheets a month) have absolutely no qualms about sending unsolicited crap (flyers, credit checks, loan offers, stupid agreement changes etc.) in the post. The paper savings from going the e-statement route is probably less than 10%! :sigh:

                                          How true! My bank sends me something that almost seems a newspaper in size and number of pages. It invariably ends up in the recycling bin, but all the resources spent to make and deliver it are totally wasted.

                                          If you truly believe you need to pick a mobile phone that "says something" about your personality, don't bother. You don't have a personality.
