Guest guest Posted January 10, 2000 Report Share Posted January 10, 2000 This was my original post about Lyme-green coins. Many people missed it because they weren't reading mail over the holidays. Robynn Not long ago, in a different publication, someone suggested us Lymies use Lime-green fingernail polish to put some kind of mark on our coins (a dot or x or just a 'splash'). This was to show how many of us there are and how much we affect the economy by showing our money circulating. Now that we are trying to be more politically active and attempting to have our voices heard even more, would now be a good time to try something like this? What do you guys think? Dumb idea? Could we even get enough people to actually do it enough to make an impact? Let's bat this idea around a bit and see if it's something we want to pursue. SO - What do YOU think? Robynn [Lyme-aid] OT but a help to lymies From: " sue " <quincy@...> Just remembered about doing this & thought it might help those of us with memory problems. So as not to have to remember whether I have updated my antivirus definitions, I have taken to changing the color of my desktop whenever I do so.( say this week it is red, then the next time I change to green). I also keep a log in a notebook. Having the memory problems I do, I have to make use of as many helpers as I can. Learned to make lists of stuff for me to do. The only problem is to make sure the list does not then get covered up. Then I will forget to do it. One of my favorite acronyms is PIA. Pain in the ***. Or PIB for pain in the butt. whichever you prefer. I read most likely here about painting coins with lime green nail polish, which I think is a great idea. After searching & finding lime green nail polish, I started to mark my coins. But there are too many. So I only marked my quarters & dimes. Then I got to thinking that dime rhymes with lyme, so in the future I may only mark the dimes. My spouse when I explained what I was doing, thought I was talking about limies,(people from GB) Had to explain to him what I meant. PIA.
