REALITY
1.Wanted to say a word about this company called ecotricty.com. They have charged me well over for what I owed them via the estimated bill. Did not take readings of my meter when I transferred to them. Today I got a bill from them for same amount I payed last month. The living this company statement last bill. Call em up today and they apologizes for this amount as it is an automated bill. They try to charge me 2 times for same service.
The customer service girl says “How you wanna pay this bill?” me “I don't. I have already payed it.” She “Do you have the statement right in front of you?” me “Yes”. Her puts me on hold then “oh sorry this is auto services and you have payed this bill. Please accept our apology.”
See their strategy was to get my money twice. And if I was not keeping records of my statements they would have charged me. Bastards.
Also they customer service appears to do a lot not to help and get money out of you. They may have a great environmental stance but are so money orientated and treat customers so poorly I have stooped dealing with them and went back to the old EDF. Now consider http://www.good-energy.co.uk/ ">www.good-energy.co.uk/ 100% renewable electricity supplier.
2.Meet this nice high school girl from rural Russia on net chat and tell her about the wonderful health benefits of Rooibos / Red bush tea. She went and searched her little town for it and found it in one shop. Then found it so good that she shared it between all people in her class giving 2 tea bags to each person in her class. Now this tea I drink just as prevention from various illnesses, like car drivers carry a medical kit in their cars not because they will have an accident. No, just in case they have an accident. Rooibos gives ammunition and supplies to your immune system defenses army. The army in charge of your whole nation. An army without weapons is as good as dead!
Smart girl to take on board this advice of natural health. Many people wont hear about it. Their ego and ignorance is brighter and greater than the Sun.
Recommend this tea to all people to drink and toughen up. Its a cold and bad world. Without defenses you will go down like a fly. And if yo ain't rich the public health system can mess you up more than if you never went there.

ETHICAL SHOPPER
1.Ethical shopping don't need to be complex. Buying spuds that are produced in UK saves a lot of pollution air flighting them from far locations like USA + it gives money to local farmers.
GREEN PETITIONS
1. “AGAINST CAT KILLER WEBSITE/CHILD PORN LINKS"

It has very Graphic Pictures of HOW TO KILL A CAT and turn the fur into a handbag.There are also links to CHILD PORN SITES..WE HAVE THE PROOF. This is unacceptable and must be removed and the owner of the site charged.”
2.“Tell the EPA: Don't Pollute our National Parks!"
As each of us takes steps in our own life to combat global warming - recycling, using non-toxic products, changing lightbulbs - the EPA, the very agency that should be leading the way toward cleaner energy, is writing proposals to help coal companies pollute our National Parks!”
3. “Create Peace in the World - Starting From the Inside"
World leaders disagree on so many fronts. Turmoil rages on in Iraq. Civil war is ravaging regions like Darfur. Now more than ever we need peace.
Taking action to create world peace is essential, but lasting peace must start from the inside out, in the heart of every individual. Only when inner-peace becomes a reality for each one of us, can there be lasting peace on the outside.
Prem Rawat, internationally recognised as an authority on the topic of inner-peace, recently said "People say in this world there needs to be peace .... I say in YOUR WORLD there needs to be peace."
Quote of life time!
“Now that I've got more sense I think drugs are a terrible thing. Anybody who takes them is a mug, and those bastards that deal them and make money out of kids are nothing better than slags.”
“Well, I got a call one day from a guy in Woodford. He said. Lenny, I want you to do a favor for a pal of mine. His name's Dougie.' 'I don't do favors.' I said, 'but as long as I get well paid I'll go ahead and see him. ... What I didn't realize was that Dougie was right bastard. The reason he wanted me around was so that he could screw the painters out of wages they'd worked bloody hard for.
