POPSDo you FREECYCLE?
egsnyder
by egsnyder  2-8-2010   
 Great way to get FREE "stuff"... People get to the tipping point, and then just have to unload. The URL in the piece is incorrect. It should be WWW.FREECYCLE.ORG .

POPSAdaptive Reuse: Airplane Home
egsnyder
by egsnyder  1-31-2010   
 This creative reuse idea was uncovered on the ReUseIt Café Yahoo! group (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/reuseitcafe/) . Great idea, but I believe it's located in Mississippi - not exactly a Northern clime. And it took years and years and the cooperative efforts of many to complete. Not exactly an overnight wonder for the faint of heart.
