Boycott chocolate:

Some nut from Decatur, GA, David Smith, writes in today's paper that much of the chocolate in Halloween candy is produced in the Ivory Coast, where 15,000 children ages 9 - 12 are "child slaves" - many sold into slavery for just $30.

Just buy Fair Trade certified organic chocolate (that's the stuff where a mini-bar costs $2.88) to be sure.

Tell you kids not to accept that Ivory Coast stuff when they trick-or-treat.
