[blparent] green and natural products in the home

[Jo Elizabeth Pinto]

Simple Green is a nice all-purpose cleaner that I think works well.

"How far you go in life depends on you being tender with the young, 
compassionate with the aged, sympathetic with the striving, and tolerant of 
the weak and the strong.  Because someday in life you will have been all of 
these."--George Washington Carver, 1864-1943, American scientist
