Scammers everywhere

There are scammers everywhere....


In 1987 Canada published a study showing how discarded fishing nets kill 100,000 marine mammals every 3 years.

In 2002 the Australian government published a report based on this study saying that Plastic Shopping Bags kill 100,000 marine mammals a year.

In 2009 an Australian petrol company, who claims they are environmentally responsible, switched to paper bags to save the marine mammals.

In 2010 it was noted that paper bags are significantly bulkier, requiring more trucks and fuel to transport the same number of bags.

The petrol company has found a cleaver way to sell more fuel to trucking companies, while conning their customers into buying the paper bags with a story about saving marine mammals!

...so what has this got to do with SecondLife?  ...nothing, I just hate having to pay for bags!
