Often we can save money, by simply having a smaller home. It cost less in taxes, less in maintenance, and reselling it is easier.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4178084558354196266-844186728162136780?l=o3man.blogspot.com'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/O3man/~3/ZgCiBJ_ew4E/big-is-better.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (o3man)</author><thr:total xmlns:thr="http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0">0</thr:total><feedburner:origLink>http://o3man.blogspot.com/2009/10/big-is-better.html</feedburner:origLink></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4178084558354196266.post-4755577203338447116</guid><pubDate>Sun, 25 Oct 2009 20:30:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2009-10-25T13:31:56.428-07:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">organic</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">green</category><title>orgain® or organic</title><description>&lt;a href="http://www.treehugger.com/files/2009/10/complaint-filed-against-target.php"&gt;There is a motion filed with USDA against target.&lt;/a&gt; This is because the soy milk product orgain® it carries use to be organic, but now uses conventional soybeans.

A very sad loss we have is of top soil. It is that thin dark red layer on top of the soil profile. Under the top soil is a yellow clay layer and beneath that a gravel layer. At the very bottom is the bed rock. Due to erosion we are losing topsoil and forced to farm the subsoil which is less productive. &lt;a href="http://www.seattlepi.com/local/348200_dirt22.html"&gt;Every time it rains topsoil is lost via erosion, but using organic farming we can slow soil loss.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4178084558354196266-4258681961842702884?l=o3man.blogspot.com'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/O3man/~3/l-Y43tpRybo/soil-loss.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (o3man)</author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_mUJpe6Zs9LA/SuIedVH_TVI/AAAAAAAAACc/uJhCENRC4Ms/s72-c/soil98.gif" height="72" width="72" /><thr:total xmlns:thr="http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0">0</thr:total><feedburner:origLink>http://o3man.blogspot.com/2009/10/soil-loss.html</feedburner:origLink></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4178084558354196266.post-2668342491946752549</guid><pubDate>Fri, 23 Oct 2009 13:40:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2009-10-23T06:40:07.888-07:00</atom:updated><title>Ecotopia</title><description>People our world is what we make it.
