You know, it's occurring to me that a Bush presidency could actually be better for my environmental issue on several levels. Rather than hearing Gore drone on about the environment, making it just another one of those things that we collectively tune out, or assume is is in the capable hands of earth concious politicians (which probably wouldn't be the case), the 'oil man' would likely attract a whole lot more political attention to environmental issues from the opposition party needing fodder and by being the fund raising tundra poking poster boy held up to raise millions and millions of dollars for environmental interest/ activism. Redwood Summer, a very important turning point in saving the ecology of the redwoods, and changing the dominant mindset, happened under a Republican president. Iy happened under James Watt. It very well may never have happened at all with a Democrat in the Whitehouse. Bush, by the absense af virtue there could unintentionally help create a politcal climate of counterpoint that in the long run serves the environment and earth's interest in a more significant way. I do however think that the U.S. Dept of Education should make Dubya's speaking/synaptic disability job #1. ...even if Gore ends up as President. <g> -JCJ
