Software recommendation to save the environment.
I think this is an important piece of software that no one should be without, I have always been concerned about wasting too much paper when printing. Only if we could:
· merge & print multiple jobs together
· easily preview print jobs and eliminate unwanted pages on the fly
· scale larger paper on standard paper
· print multiple pages on a single page
· do double sided (duplex) pagesWe could easily save more than 50% of the paper and toner not to mention storage space. All of the above and more is possible with the following software:

I have tried this at home, work and elsewhere and can tell you that it is all that it's billed to be. Go to the home page to see what all you can do. You wont be disappointed!
Given that this is a win win proposition for the environment, cost and storage reduction, I am recommending that all try this even you don't intend to buy it. The best part is that you can use the trial version for up to 8 pages indefinitely, which in most cases will be enough for the majority of non professional printing needs (if you print 4 pages per page then 4x8=32 pages can fit on just 8 or 4 double sided pages! or 320 pages on 80 or 40 double sided pages if you use the full version)
Great for the books from Soil and Health Library and else where unless you are fortunate enough to be able to read directly of the net, which of course won't use any paper in the first place!

Here is a bit of history that illustrates why they feed us hydrofluorosilcic acid in our water. Show this to those who ask why should the authorities slow poison us! "One of the main reasons for processing the raw phosphate rock for agricultural purposes is because of the fluoride content – mainly in the form of fluorosilicates/silicon tetrafluoride. Back in the early part of the 20th century when industrial farming... [read more]
