In reply to #10: There really is nearly always more to the story.  Thanks, allyson, for letting us in on this!!!

In reply to #1: Wow! It has been a very long time since I've seen/heard adults refer to one another as "f-ing retards." My opinion is not quite as passionate, mainly because I just don't know enough about either side of the issue. Is consuming more paper the best way to get more trees, or is cutting down on the use of paper the best way to save trees? My hair hurts just thinking about this. I just do not know enough about the recycling or forestry or paper industries to form a strong opinion. I basically buy re-used books because they are so much cheaper, and why create a demand for brand new products (hence, paper) when there are already manufactured products available? It seems like common sense. I do the same with music CD's when possible, even clothes now and then, if I find a great vintage clothing store. Getting back to the paper question, I think it would make a great investigative piece for an industrious journalist. Which side is more tree friendly?
