#2 You value their words, Sherry, so why shouldn't they? Seems to me that registration is a reasonable price to pay for valuable words. Excerpting a few paras to demonstrate the value of those words would seem reasonable though.
That's just me speaking, and I have nothing to do with 'burg operations.

#3 Moderators' discretion on posting long articles -- we sometimes snip, sometimes dump, many times move portions to Page 49, and sometimes allow the whole thing as is. This is one of those times. Don't fret. AoS.

#4 Perhaps her most lasting contribution was the "Keep America Beautiful" campaign. Ironically, its brilliance lied in its simplicity: put trash cans where people throw garbage, and more often then not, they will put their trash in the cans.

In just a couple of years, it had a noticeable impact, and led to the clean water and clear air acts, which at their inception, also worked and made a noticeable improvement around the country.

Which, at the time, was pretty nasty.
