"When you think and live conservation, you wouldn't allow a quick jaunt such as the one M. Obama did to even enter your thinking other than in an emergency"

Bull; that's the same argument the deniers use against Gore. Ignores the fact that the good outweighs the bad. Would China respond to Gore if he stayed in a cave and sent them e-mails?


Huh? What's wrong with first class for Mr. Gore? Not good enough? BS.

You can use it against me, too. Tomorrow, I'm gonna burn 5 gal to drive to work for a meeting on energy. Big waste, lots of CO2. Balanced, hopefully, by the thought that I will convince the PTB to adopt an entire energy conservation program, from turning off lights to going solar and co-generation. Should I stay home, or do the benefits outweigh my contribution to destroying the atmosphere and burning thru the last of the gas?

Why is it going to take 5 gallons?

Like I said in another post, in 5 years, you may wish you had that 5 gallons and had done your presentation by phone.
