I think > it's > hilarious. When did greenpeace ask for cash? You must be confused. Green does not mean money in this case. Although R.E.M.'s album Green did mean money. REM thought it was a joke on the music industry the album suck, the band even admitted this, but they still sold millions. You may be confusing them with some international group. Greenpeace the environmental, peace group was founded in Vancouver. The Interprovical Woodworkers Association's 10 million members, who have world-wide support, did ask for cash, "Cut a check". Oh sorry that is INTERNATONAL.W.A they are the international group every one is confusing with green peace. Funny nobody get the real name right it is "THE INTERNATIONAL WOODWORKS ASSOCIATION: U.S.-CANADA. Sorry the the Canadian local branch is not even independent enough to get ride of the "U.S.-". Gee and some people still think is was a Canadian issue. > I'm sure the humor will come to you eventually. > > -- Larry >
