    That'll be easy, because my wife has two worm compost piles and if I miss one I will hit the other!

    McKinney hasn't. I think that I may just get in touch with the Sustainability people in Mckinney. Possible EV outing.

    I though he said "pulk". Thought he meant "sulk" or "push" or maybe "he was going to Polka!

    There are many Earthday events and schools and businesses all around LA. Some on weekdays that I may be able to attend (work permitting) and as I said on the other thread the SB Earthday is the best event of all.

    Hey Bonnie and Timothy, where did you get your bees from? I live in the bay area and have been trying to get a swarm for the box i built last year. (the nearest place I could find that sold bulk bees was in chico and I don't really want to drive 3 hours there and 3 hours back).

    And what is an "ICE"?

    A local beekeeper had an extra hive - but there are plenty of places online that will ship. Just google 'bee supplies'.

    We have Santa Barbara Beekeepers Association which collects swarms and cut outs to give to members. Manybe there is a similar organization in the Bay Area. I'd go to HMS Beekeeping in the Mission District in the City Your Beekeeping Supply and Honey Shop and see what you can learn. A cool store and very helpful.

    On the 18th I'll be part of a gallery of "exhibitors" for the office that I work at. I actually need to prep some material and would love pointers on one-stop-websites where I can get information about EV's and energy. I can talk to a lot of stuff but I have no references or exact numbers and would like to have those. Things like # of cars on the road, barrels of oil consumed per day (and how much of that is gasoline for automobiles), electricity used for refinement, average miles driven per day per person, general information about EVs available today and what's coming soon, etc ... I have a lot of research I need to do! I also need to do my taxes
