It's a "world hunger" type issue, and while I can't get my mind around solving the problem on a large scale, I've pondered my part on a smaller scale (some of which I've already alluded to).

I have never read Anne Lamott, but I guess her name comes up often enough I'm curious. <BR/><BR/>Although I agree with the essence of your post, I wasn't quite sure of your point. Who can argue?
