Sure everyone has seen the Geico TV commercial about caveman. The most
recent commercial with comment about someone waking up on the wrong side of
the rock seems appropriate here. The person making the comment doesn't
address the conversation, rather, makes comment on an understandable
emmotional state with ridicule. I didn't think it was funny.

I just wanted to know something about biodegradability of coffee filters.


I think you now have ample information. The best thing is to buy a
reusable filter to fit your basket type. Or, do an experiement and
let us know how long it takes your "paper" filter to degrade. You are
in charge of this research now.


The plastic and/or metal screened reusable filters are a godsend... and
eliminate the whole issue of paper filters.

Plus they make the coffee taste better.

Another option is to give up coffee. I had to do that about 14 years ago
at the advice of a gastroenterologist.

Oddly enough, I got to give up the doctor when I gave up coffee.

He was right.

He told me it was not the caffeine so decaffeinated was out too.

I drink green tea now or take green tea extract and it works better than
coffee ever dreamed of doing.

And its good for you.
