Ah, "liberals." Where else can you find such a comedy resource, other than, perhaps, "conservatives?"

I have a solution for such people as this: Build a community that meets their environmental goals (if that's even possible) and require them to live and work there for a few years . They don't get to travel to the next town to shop at their Wal*Mart and buy coffee from their *$'s, and so-on. They have to live w/in the energy means they've been insisting everybody does.

Bet that'll cure 'em .
