'interesting' story not true

Hi All....Just learned that the mulch story is not true.... the termites chewed holes right thru this one.... :-)Termite-infested mulch rumors are false Don't be surprised if anxious customers begin asking if the mulch you sell is infested with termites. An e-mail rumor peaked last week that mulch made from trees blown over by Hurricane Katrina is infested with Formosan termites and is being sold to the public, primarily through Home Depot. Louisiana State Univ. rebutted the rumor, releasing a statement that the affected area, although infested with Formosan termites, is under quarantine, and no untreated wood products harvested from Katrina would be on the market legally. Web site Snopes.com originally had the rumor listed as "undetermined," which increased consumer fears. Bob LaGasse, exec. dir. of Mulch & Soil Council, contacted Snopes.com last Friday with up-to-the-minute information on the mulch, and the Web site updated the rumor from "undetermined" to "false."

Well that's a huge relief, now my mulch customers will have some piece of mind with their purchase.

Anyone know where I can find good prices on prescription drugs or possibly a beastiality rape blog?
