Environmentalists Seek to Wipe Out Plush Toilet Paper
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/co ... 11_pf.html

It is a fight over toilet paper: the kind that is blanket-fluffy and getting fluffier so fast that manufacturers are running out of synonyms for "soft" (Quilted Northern Ultra Plush is the first big brand to go three-ply and three-adjective).

It's a menace, environmental groups say -- and a dark-comedy example of American excess.

The reason, they say, is that plush U.S. toilet paper is usually made by chopping down and grinding up trees that were decades or even a century old. They want Americans, like Europeans, to wipe with tissue made from recycled paper goods.

It has been slow going. Big toilet-paper makers say that they've taken steps to become more Earth-friendly but that their customers still want the soft stuff, so they're still selling it.

Rough, rough, rough, is the outcry.. Cry for RAW behinds! It's the least we could do.. do!

So you could say they are doing their best to "wipe out green house gasses?"

Exactly.. I think this is smear campaign myself.

So, it's back to John Wayne toilet paper....

Rough, tough and won't take anything off anybody.

recycled paper for tp isn't all that rough. at least there isn't mention of going back to using a spong on a stick.

(or moving toward the three seashells)

I think this is smear campaign myself.

Funny!

I always thought it was the Liberal's politics that stunk now I think it's either their unclean hineys or their hands they wiped with.

Sam's was giving away rolls of their new soft TP over the weekend as you leave. I told the lady, "You might want to keep that. If the president gets his way, you'll be using sandpaper."

Yep... it's time to Roll up our sleeves, grab the plunger stick and force this load of bull down the drain. If not.. true to form.. it's going to flood the room and stink up everything.
