Do you know how to preserve a bonsai in chemical for indoors?

I have been doing this for a few years. I started using NeverSayDye chemical for the preservation, then started making my own with glycerin and water and food dye. Does anyone have any great recipes for this hobby? FYI, I have started a preservedbonsai group at Yahoo if you want to stay in touch.

How can I live like the man without money?

I saw the article on the Yahoo homepage:

I admire him a lot. I’m a recent university graduate, and I feel like my life as it is lacks meaning. Sure, I need a job, but even if I had one, so what? I’d just be spending most of my life working for someone who’ll be paying me but at best would never really care about me. Is there any intrinsic meaning to it? I personally don’t care about being rich, it’s not like having a house or nice car or nice clothes would make me happier. But I live in a society where that’s valued. I lack passion in anything in life, and without a job will be nothing more than something to pay the bills.

However I have two problems with living that lifestyle:

1. I’m still an intellectual person. Even if I were homeless I’d still want to go to the library sometimes and read.
2. I might never find a girlfriend/wife, but even if I lived with money I might not find one either.

But even if I don’t exactly live like him, how do I get his life experiences – working in an Ecuadorean village, living in a Buddhist monastery, etc? I don’t know where to look for that sort of thing and with my degree in computer science I doubt I’ll be qualified for a job or volunteering.

And if I do, how do I get his survival skills?

Why must so many people discriminate against smokers?

You see so many questions on Yahoo Answers asking if its o.k. to punch a smoker, o.k. to set them on fire, or other questions that basically entail treating them like a piece of crap. These people direct hate & self issues onto smokers as if the world stops because of a bad habit. Yet they get into a car every day, start it up & out as many chemicals as a cigarette. While they are trying to beat or set on fire another smoker a truck passes. It is letting out as much pollution as a smoker. It doesnt make much sense. I do agree you shouldnt be forced to smell smoke. Outdoors there is enough room there shouldnt be such a problem. Whats next? What clothes you can wear? What food you can eat? If you continue to regulate what a person can & cannot do you will no longer live in a society of free will. Whats your view on these issues?
I would like to thank the that have responded with regards to the truck & car analogy. Yet so many others seem to totally avoid that topic Fact remains, car puts out MORE pollution than cigarettes. If a smoker is a murderer than so is every motorist & every person operating equipment that produces the same sort of exhaust.
LOL Sad. Atleast the last answer agrees cars cause pollution. So do factories. But then again according to them I am only pointing a finger. What is that? a finger pointed at a smoker. Imagine that. Well there appears to me no recourse for someone who smokes. Since smokers cause pollution & kill themselves & the whole world, We need to stop it. Same goes with cars, factories, you name it. If it smokes we must put it out. Stomp it down. Once we’re done we will all sit around the camp fire with no food clothing or cars & talk about what a good job we did…. wait… fire produces pollution.. Sorry kids, no campfire tonight…
Well, This question has run its course long enough. Just thought I would add the horse & buggy to a growing list of alternative means of transportation. On a lighter note, I dont smoke either. I dont really care if you smoke either. Have a good one everyone.

could yahoo add food recipes to their list of things to search?
