Chinese Smoke Curtain (CSC)

Wednesday, February 8th, 2006

1.2 million people in China are killed as a result of smoking each year. Not in the last place because of the low price of it, 7 eurocent (or 8 dollarcent) for a packet (!).

The market in China is huge and growing and growing, but now the Chinese government will not allow new cigarette factories to be build in China.

This could save about 200 million lives till 2050. A nice amount…

Can I have a light, please?

For my incense…

Don’t drive dr… I mean with infant kid on your lap. Britney was caught on film driving her car with her about 6 months old boy on her lap. Good thinking, darling! Good thinking!

Coke Environment (CE)

Tuesday, February 7th, 2006

Oh yes, I know Coca Cola isn’t really healthy, just like a lot of other (carbonated) soft drink. I am still trying to drink it less often.
My girlfriend got me started.

But the boys and girls at Coca Cola are so nice to help me with that…

In favour (or at the expense?) of the environment they started using one way bottles (right one) that have a classier look than the old, but will be used one time and then shredded into pieces (of plastic). And at Coca Cola they didn’t like the scraped look of the bottles.
The funny thing is that it was probably important to raise the the price with 40%!! And this is excluding deposit. The mountain of waste is growing and I am paying 40% more!!!

I am very curious what the now [dutch] Minister for Housing, Regional Development and the Environment will have as a job after being a minister? In the the supervisory board of Coca Cola? Deal already been made?

E-Stamps (E-S)

Monday, February 6th, 2006

Yahoo! and America Online (AOL) are trying to find new ways to get money from their users.

I first looked at the calender to be sure it isn’t April Fool’s Day. But it really isn’t…

The two companies are preparing for a system to let companies pay for having their e-mails delivered.

Going back in time: when do we get the stage-coach back?
