Oh. I emailed someone about another meeting, and then lamented that I missed the registration for the SARE conference next week. The response was “Too many conferences, too many earth fairs, too much!” Damned rising interest in sustainability! (I’m kidding, of course~)
I feel their pain. I feel their pain because the growing season is upon us. I feel their pain because no one wants to miss out on Anything Good. I feel their pain because events are many. And…spring is here. When will we have time to eat all this New Food? Mmmmm…Justus Drugstore…
