responsible credit cards

an update on my post from september regarding money, etc. i ended up going with the salmon nation card, which i've been enjoying for several months now, and maybe makes me feel just a little bit less guilty (appropriately or not) as the new york lifestyle of conspicuous consumption slowly envelopes me.

A December article from co-op america addresses the issues well, and basically accomplishes in one article what took me several weeks of research. And in fact they accomplish even more, because somehow I didnt' even figure out that Ithaca's Alternatives Federal Credit Union, which I obviously already knew about, also has a credit card and that even though I've left Ithaca, I can still join by doing online banking with them. Something to investigate.
