  1. A Better step would be of meter based charging. You pay according to ur usage. People around us don’t have access to enough water to complete their drinking needs and we are wasting drinkable water for washing our doorways and vehicles.
    Its never too late, let’s join hands and start conserving Blue Gold for our coming generations.

  2. Do you know how I avoid duplicate iCal alerts? (Apple support does not, so far…) I think b/c of iCloud calendar sharing amongst my husband and i, I’m getting two alerts for every event on the iMac and on the iPhone. anything is up to date and i have a new MacBook Pro and the new iPhone 4s.
