I bitch about both. But unlike you I don't use one as an excuse for the other.

Huh?

I never hear you bitch about the carbon footprint of a golf course though.

You never heard me bitch about the carbon footprint of anything.

I would just like to see us use oil efficiently so I can enjoy my old age as much as I enjoyed the rest of my life. It's selfish. If the economy tanks it takes my old age with it. I figure I've got between 20 and 30 years (if lucky) and I don't want it F'ed up.

Jim, > I bitch about both. But unlike you I don't use one as an excuse for the other.

This post is from quite a while ago:

Message 23266436

An otherwise good post about teacher pay and turnover then gets sidetracked with a reference to CEO pay.

Like you said Jim, apples and oranges.
