Halloween candy buy-back
I just read this article about a dentist in Georgia who will be "buying back" Halloween candy for $1 per pound, and then giving that candy to a charitable organization who sends it in care packages to our troops overseas. To me, this is win-win-win. Kids get less cavities/tummyaches/childhood diabetes, dentist gets publicity, troops get hard-to-find American candy. The program is expanding and more and more dentists are getting involved. I'm going to look into it next Halloween.

Hmmmm...spoken like a true dentist to be.
A dentist here does that, the problem is that he doesnt take the candy until the 6th of November. A week after Halloween what kid has a pound of candy left? He also sends floss and toothbrushes to the troops. It's a good idea though.
Hey that candy keeps you in business Mister! You remember that!
