It’s harder than I thought to donate my recently-shorn hair to the charity that turns hair and pet fur clippings into oil-spill booms. They require that you sign up first, then wait to be sent an address for shipping. And they really discourage individuals from donating; they prefer bulk shipments from salons and groomers. Meanwhile their storage facilities are getting backed up near the Gulf, as BP didn’t want to accept the donated booms. The hell? So maybe they’ll send straight to the Louisiana Wetlands people?
