Re: Evergreen Forest Services
Are these guys still in business? Got approached by the new owner of their previous phone number to remove it from my site. Can't seem to find other info on them anywhere. I started off with them and enjoyed working with them, nice coastal and mountainous stuff.

Re: evolution of mosquitos?
Lived on an island in Thailand where a few friends got Dengue fever, some a few times. Sounds absolutely horrible, and am glad I managed to avoid it, even though mosquitos totally love me. Heard if you get it enough times you eventually die. Eat lots of garlic and avoid bananas, to keep away a lot m...

Re: evolution of mosquitos?
cool to know, thanks. And now for the bizarre part perhaps. Lately, based on how I noticed how they seem to react to me, quite knowingly it seems, made me think that some sort of collective consciousness on their part combined with evolution is going on??? Maybe I should just roll another fatty.

evolution of mosquitos?
okay, perhaps a bizarre subject, but when growing up in Ontario some 40 years ago, I remember mosquitos were like slow moving tanks that were easy to swat and kill. They seemed bigger and of different in shape. Since I moved into my campervan some 8 years ago (in Turkey), I noticed that the mosquito...

well, from my understanding it depends on the content AND that it is available to the public. That is the exact definition of libel. But if you have a private forum viewable only to members then no one can apparently sue you.

Re: Hardcore Treeplanters
The rules have changed quite a bit since 20 years ago.

Wrote a lot of that from memory, from a time when I was planting more than 20 years ago. Heck, maybe that was even before Canada went metric.
