While you were reading this page about 300 acres of rainforest were destroyed. Education about environmental issues is vital; however education without action is like sex without love - empty and heartless

your suspicions are incorrect. Ive been coming to the site for a year or so but never posted until recently. I didn't want to get mixed up in your silly little name calling rants that sometimes pop up on here.
I think star is fairly new as well....but i thought star was a girl (SOO sorry if wrong!)
I guess this is the best welcome of all....your treating me just like one of you.
oh thank you noname.
I do truly feel welcome.

PS: i thought star was helping create a lighter mood on here. i like the first comment on this thread. jajajaja
