Now back to the issues before they are on Mars, which I am sure the rich are working on. Sighs.......... There is little "profit" in solar and other fuel sources, Sonny Bono, bless his soul, did put Windmills in for his city in Palm Springs, CAL long before his death. I admire him for that. The most famous people I know will not be known in this lifetime, so I want to do something. ECO-Anthropologist...in waiting, doing, all I can.

I just met a representative of RAN and looked this website up right away. Now I'm asking myself, was I being asked to sign a petition to stop funding to coal, or to arrest Al Gore? I don't think anybody should go to jail. If collective action is the key, then we should not alientate people or fight amoungst ourselves. If we adopt an "all-or-nothing" attitude it will discourage people from joining our cause as well as distract from it. Has anyone let Al Gore know what they think directly? How are friend and foe to be defined? Honestly, we need all the friends we can get if we're going for real change. I agree with Luke that collective action will take us farther than isolated acts.

Considering RAN's offensive campaign against Al Gore during the 2000 elections, this brings up some bad memories. Thank you RAN for helping put Bush in office--and now reminding us about it again 7 years later. Are you serious? Have you no institutional memory at all? Is there anyone working at RAN who worked there back in 1999 and 2000? After what you guys did in 2000 you should be thankful that Al Gore doesn't speak out about you guys. You owe him a huge THANK YOU for not bringing up that embarrassment to the entire environmental activist movement. Please, let sleeping dogs lie, and move on to better things. Wow.
