Issue: April 22, 2010
Hi everybody,
’Round these parts we like to talk about the things nobody else talks about. Number one on that list: number two. In honor of Earth Day, the RN&R editors have gotten down and dirty and examined the ecology of bodily waste. Also in this issue is the official Earth Day program, and we take a look at Sue Lowden’s much mocked bartering proposal for health care. We pay a visit to the El Rancho Drive-In flea market. In Filet of Soul, Brian reads up on the basics of Islam, and we profile a local band with a great name: The Dawner Party.
Thanks for reading! If it wasn’t for you, we wouldn’t even know what planet we were on.
Brad Bynum,
RN&R Arts Editor
