My dad and grandfather have talked to me about REI during the Carter double digit inflation and the 80's S&L fallout.

The u.s.a has been high jacked with all these loans/gas prices etc,in fear of bank ruptcy did you know that legislation is passing a bill that coinage will be made of steel in 2010 because copper/zinc and nickel is more than the face value of the current currency foren currency will dominate and is dominateing us know.

If possible you can pick up digital thermostats for $30 that can run a schedule that keeps it cool only during the hottest days.

I saw an opportunity on Craigslist the other day where this company will pay you $10 per abandoned/vacant property you submit to them via their website w/ digital pictures.
