Open Source Dictionary
Wiktionary, like wikipedia, lets users define their own entries which are editable by others. There are some rules so check out the site for details. I added chillax [dict]chillax[/dict], as coined by Jesssica Ho in 1993. The definations are often different from dictionary.com e.g. geek [dict]geek[/dict] is defined how it should be and not as some circus sideshow freak that eats the heads off of chickens. Some definations are very well written. All can be very well written e.g. appearance [dict]appearance[/dict]. Test it out if you get a chance.

[size=m]Free Lecture at Science Museum[/size]
FAF is proud to Sponsor and Promote Local and National Ancient Forest Expert and Author Bruce Kershner who will be giving a wonderful Free Lecture at the Buffalo Science Museum on Tuesday August 24th[/b]
Title: "In Search of the Last Primeval Forests of The Northeast"
What: Hayes Lecture, Distinguished Speaker Series
Time: August 24, 2004, 7:00 pm, Buffalo Museum of Science,
Cost: FREE
Description:
Bruce Kershner, National Old Growth Forest Expert, Author Towering, cathedral-like ancient forests were thought to have been virtually wiped out by centuries of cutting in the Northeast. But Bruce Kershner, old-growth forest authority, forest ecologist, and author of 12 books, has proven this to be a false conclusion. He has discovered 200 old growth forests in Eastern North America where previously no one thought they existed, even in Manhattan and next to Niagara Falls Casino! These primeval forests are revealed to the public for the first time in his most recently published book Sierra Club Guide to Ancient Forests of the Northeast.
Bruce Kershner will lead us on a stunning visual tour of the largest, tallest, oldest, and most bizarre trees in the Northeast States, with a special focus on our region. You will marvel at fantastically gnarled cedars up to 750 years old, colossal oaks and sycamores up to 24 feet in girth, Western NY's Gallery of Giants with the world's tallest elms and basswoods, and Pennsylvania's Forest Cathedral Grove with white pines approaching 200 feet tall. He will show you how to visually identify if a tree is old growth, and how to find ancient forests. This presentation will permanently change the way you see and appreciate the forests of the Northeast. Local Landscape artist Thomas Annear has donated a limited addition print of a painting he did in Zoar from his recent showing at the Patterson Library in Westfield NY to help raise funds for FAF.
This print will be available at our hikes and events for viewing and purchase. Check out Tom's web site at and support this important local artist and help save Zoar at the same time. FAF sends a warm thanks to Tom for his generous donation of talent and heart.
This is an important message to our current administration that i have just read and signed.
[size=m]Petition[/size]
Help Stop the Bush National Forest Giveaway
We are trying to reach 25000 signatures, and we need YOUR HELP!
In 2001, the Bush administration promis
ed
to uphold the Roadless Area Conservation Rule to protect our last wild forests. But guess what Bush and his administration have just reneged on this promise. Unless we act quickly, 58.5 million acres of our national forests will be at risk from destructive road-building, logging and drilling.
Please help today and sign this petition to submit your public comment in opposition to these changes:
Public comments are a great way for all of us as citizens to express our concerns for our environment, and to hold our government accountable.
Help send a clear and powerful message that we will not tolerate the administration giving our national forests away.
Sign this petition today!
Once you have signed, help even more, by telling your friends and family to sign as well!
