I'm disappointed with myself for whole-heartedly agreeing. I've even come to
question Gore's commitment to the environment. Where the heck is he??? After
reading his Earth In The Balance book, I was convinced he was on our side.
Now I've become cynical and will even accuse him of yanking environmentalists
around, without ever having had the intent to implement the ideas he declared
in his book (just trying to get our votes) :-(

I guess we all had better go see the last generation Spotted Owls...
