Guest guest Posted February 27, 2002 Report Share Posted February 27, 2002 Hi Tammy, everybody, My name is Paul, 29 not-married, and learned about this group at the vegfair in Santa Clara a few weeks back. That really was a wonderful event - the first of the kind that I've attended. I have been a vegetarian for only about 1.5 yrs; and gradually reducing dairy and eggs recently. It's so nice to meet others who have decided to consume only plant based foods whether the reasons be health, ethical, environmental, or all of the above. I learned much at the vegfair and now through the posts here and elsewhere. Thanks everyone for making it possible! I, too, love nature and the outdoors. I also like reading (non- fiction) writing, photography, and more recently - trying out vegetarian restaurants. Look forward to chatting, learning, and meeting everybody sometimes. paul , " Tammy " <meowthunk> wrote: > Hi everyone, > > To Amy, the self-titled " Newbie " , & all our other new members, welcome!
