We have a pretty sweet video rental place here, maybe they can get it for me. The more information I get about plastics, then more frightened I get. But maybe frightened is the wrong word. The right words might be more like angry and sad and frustrated that anybody has to think about plastic at all. Alex: Thanks! I am a big fan of the cloth pad. My cousin makes really bad ass ones that got me started on them in the first place. (Which, people of Europe, you can purchase from me anywhere where I've set up my distro or through the mail if you write.) The name GladRags is kind of fantastic and hilarious. Here here!

It is very well written. I work at GladRags (which sells cloth pads and menstrual cups) and I loved that you mentioned that until recently no one used disposable menstrual products. It can be hard to believe for a lot of women! But there are some awesome alternatives out there. I love my menstrual cup. Really love your article! It is very well written.

They showed it in one of the lecture halls during the suatting here. It frightened me, but I suppose that's a good thing in some ways.

Awesome that you emailed it on. Double thanks. ts: Once upon a time I had a copy of that book, but I never got around to reading it, and I didn't bring it with me to Germany. Perhaps you will meet it on the shelves of my former room when you are at my mom's this weekend. (God, lucky you, tell my remaining books that I say hello!) Excited to hear about what you dug up about plastics, though still less than excited that it exists at all. Oje. Tara: Thanks! Awesome that you emailed it on. Double thanks.

I feel like that would help as well. And I found some resources on how we started using plastics- its really interesting actually- I'll send them along when I get time.
