[GreenYes] Re: Earliest Use of the term Freecycle

[Debra Lombard <dlombard@no.address>]

"The first freecycle site was started by Deron Beal, the manager of a 
nonprofit recycling service in Tucson, Ariz. in 2002 
when he couldnât find any thrift stores to take the computers and desks 
companies wanted to recycle. So, he created a 
"cyber curb" where people could leave their trash for someone to pick up.'
