| Puppies are Biodegradable I thought this was an interesting (however horrible the issue might be) art exhibit on puppy mills, specifically the ones of Lancaster County, PA. www.puppiesarebiodegradable.com I think it'll do a good job bringing attention to puppy mills; especially to those who might not be aware of it. Philadelphia's art galleries are pretty popular, so I'm sure it'll get a lot of exposure. It runs from July 6 to July 30th, I believe. For those who are familar with the area, it's actually taking place at the Real World Philadelphia house. Anyone plan on visiting? I plan on going on the day it first opens (which happens to be First Friday (again, you'll know what that is if you are familiar with the area).

| Oh my gosh, thanks for posting that. When I clicked on and read the copy of the news article from the Lancaster New Era, the paper I get, I couldn't believe that Stoltzfus man is in West Hempfield Twp. Ugh... that's the township of my place of employment. So close to me and I never knew those idot/horrible puppy millers were in that area, I thought they were just in the areas of Lancaster County where the amish/old order mennonites live. I hope to get to Philadephia this summer sometime. If I get to go when the exibit is still there, I'm going to try my hardest to attend.

| It's me again..... I just took a look at Millbusters.com I'm going to join that group this weekend sometime. Lots of interesting information there and I saw where some of us YT'ers are on there also. Congrats to Kim & V for being Moderators on there. Gotta get to bed though, big day ahead of us tomorrow. It's Yorkie Day in PA to benefit the SaveaYorkieRescue and were going to go.

| Since it opens tomorrow, I thought I would bump this. I've noticed the other day that they have huge banners (probably 15' long) outside.. they sure where attracting a lot of attention.
