P.S.: Landscaping does have it's advantages... You might ask the "illegal alien(?) roofer" who was roofing your house, if he knows any body who does landscaping, he surely does. They will probably send a portion of the money that you pay them, back to their home country, where is is badly needed. It seems that Americans who have insisted in driving inconsionably large vehicles, have created a huge demand for fuel, which is in declining global supply, which has forced congress to enact legislation that favors the conversion of food crops (corn in particular) into motor fuel. This has had global implications, since corn is a commodity traded on the international market. The global implications are especially felt by impoverished people for whom corn makes up a large part of their diet. Many of these families can no longer afford their basic food, just so that we can drive huge vehicles. Faced with personal starvation, or starvation of their children, many people are willing to risk death to come to the US to work. Possibly planting shrubbery around your Sanyo.
