I'm going green in every way possible. I did it in the 1970s when I was a member of the Ecology Club at Kearsley High School in Flint, Michigan and I can do it again.

We did a lot of good. Recycling containers, fewer roadside advertisements, and beans instead of hamburger.

I washed cloth diapers for my children. Some of you are still using plastic diapers such as Pampers or Huggies, so here's a list of some ways to recyle. (Those long strings of diapers individually twist-wrapped in clear cellophane.)

1) Soak them in cement and use for building suspension bridges (another modern marvel).

2) Dye red, white, and blue and use for outdoor bunting (keeps people off your grass during local parades).

3) Dye them yellow and black and sell them to the local police department for "Do Not Cross" tape (guaranteed no one will try crossing).

4) Weave them together and make large area rugs (keeps room traffic way down).

5) Spray gold, red, or green to use as garland on next year's "Christmas Tree" (great homeopathic cure for sinus congestion)

6) Spray them silver and tie them post to post as a chain link fence (guaranteed to turn back all unwanted intruders).

7) Hang around the neck of the large marble statute in the park to imitate a string of pearls (pigeons are history).

8) Tie around your coat like a rope belt (allows you to walk safely to your car at night).

9) Cut them into shorter pieces and wear as a necktie to a party (where you don't want to have to talk to anyone).

10) Store in your brief case (guarantees you your own seat on the bus or train).

Love your sense of humor! I said "yikes" several times as I read your suggestions. You are quite the creative one! Thanks for the laughs and I am not sure about the ideas. Well, I don't have any in diapers. *whew!*
