Living off the smell of an oily rag

We love this site... not just for now [when people talk about depression and recession] but also for the future as we consider the impact we make on where and how we live. This is how Living off the smell of an oily rag describe themselves...

"Living off the smell of an oily rag on-line is based on a concept developed by Frank Newman. Frank is the author of a number of books, including the hugely popular Oily Rag series. Oily Rag On-line is intended to be your site - it's an opportunity to share your ideas and tips with the Oily Rag community." [copied from their 'About Us' page http://www.oilyrag.co.nz/about_us.htm]
