Y...Hello all 'well balanced' commentators. <br />Yup, I guess it boils down to a question of balance.<br /><br />I once had to design a private soccer field and golf course.<br />I winced every time I did the irrigation calculations even though the owner of this property was using his own well water on his property to keep his greens looking green, I was still conscience of the abundance of water in use.<br /><br />Then I learned about all the fantastic philanthropic events that were held on this property that brought in millions ( not thousands ) of dollars for a wide variety of causes and my conscience has been clear ever since.<br />This property is also a certified organic vineyard so they do not use any inorganic fertilizers + pesticides on the lawn or vineyard .<br /><br />John, Thanks for the me me award.<br />But I am an incredibly boring person.<br />I wouldn't want to bore anyone with my rather mundane life.Deviant Deziner, aka Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10469269749640113223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-879533546985256779.post-40176573432477544042009-09-03T10:06:21.085-07:002009-09-03T10:06:21.085-07:00I love this post.
