DID YOU KNOW?....Worldwide we are losing about 34 million acres of trees each year, due to burning and cutting. **As of August 2008, there were 248,241,969 U.S. internet users, 81% of them use the internet to find products and services, 62% are between the ages of 30 and 64, 24% of cell phone users visit local directory/city guides web sites to find businesses and services. Many local businesses we've talked to have stated that the newspapers and phone books are not as effective as they once were, yet the multi-billion dollar phone book and newspaper industries keep gobbling up millions of trees and taking big money from small businesses every year.
