Hello everyone;
It was a very good idea to create that community. Today the main party of bleached pulp is used for tissue paper.

Five facts we all wanted to know about toilet tissue (from ToiletPaperWorld.com):
1) The first roll appeared in 1890, made by the Scott Paper Co. in Philadelphia. The two-ply roll appeared in 1942.
2) That's almost 400 years after Sir John Harrington invented the flushing toilet in 1596.
3) An average of 666 rolls of toilet paper are used at the Pentagon each day.
4) The average consumer uses 8.6 sheets per trip, 57 sheets a day, one standard roll every five days and 20,800 sheets a year.
5) Before toilet tissue, wealthy Romans used wool and rosewater or sponges soaked in salt water at the end of a stick.

The Library and Publishing
If you have anything you want to publish, there are two choices:
(1) You can supply your work in PDF form and we will put it in the library on this site. You can also upload PDF's to your committee site.
(2) If you choose to publish in paper form, we suggest you use www.instantpublisher.com. We have had great success with them and they are very economical. You will, of course, have to "pass the hat" for publishing funds, but that should not be too expensive for you.
