   Cars did more damage to the LA air than Krakatoa

   lgm, Having lived in L.A., I know that the basin in which it lies was known by the ancient indians who lived there as “the valley of fire” long before there was a single car there!

   I remember during the many anti-nuke protests in the 1980′s that small children were used in various social campaigns to express their terror of nukes. At the time, some psychologists said that it is the job of parents to protect their young children from worrying about things like this that were out of their control. It was jarring to see a six year old so versed on nukes and it could only be the parents who provided this information. Now even if you keep your kids away from the news of the day, it seems to be okay for grade schools to put the fear of God bad science into them.

   All I said was murderers should compost their victims in trunks like Earthday founder Ira Einhorn.

   Speaking of that piece of trash. Anyone else notice how the Earth Day entry in Wikipedia has been scrubbed of any reference to him?

   Here’s something I didn’t know. Guess who was Einhorn’s attorney?

   Einhorn’s bail was set at $40,000 at the request of his attorney, Arlen Specter;

   Today I thanked God for creating this Earth and me. He is the one who will decide how it will end.

   letget, so true! Thanks for the prayer suggestion. I also thanked God for creating this earth, and sustaining it and all that is therein, despite what man does!!

   Ah yes; ‘Earth Day’.

   I burned all my household trash along with a lot of yard waste in a huge fire outside last evening. I smoked 2 cigarettes while I watched the trash burn.

   I think I heard the trees, flowers, birds, cornfields, bees in the hive all thanking me.

   I’m not being sarcastic. All of the above thrive around our property.

   I don’t celebrate the loopy earth celebration that a convicted murderer founded, but I dont get the unhealty anti-conservation nonsense either.

   Conservatives are supposed to be the ones with the facts and the facts are that cigar smoking, unhealty eating, and the like, harm YOU.

   You look silly when you use these arguments.

   We do our part to waste very little. We recycle/reuse/reduce use for everything we can, incl. food and paper and plastic. Uneaten food is composted or given to our dogs. Paper and plastic are recycled or reused for storage, crafts, etc. We shop at yard sales and consignment stores for clothing and household items. We also “freecycle ” to try to ensure that items we can’t use don’t end up in a landfill. (You’d be amazed at how often our “junk” becomes someone else’s “treasure” and vice versa!) My husband hunts and what we don’t eat he passes on to those who do.

   It’s called being a good steward. We didn’t need the goobermint to tell us how/when or even why to do it.

    I celebrated earth day (lowercase intentional) by driving for 2 hours to the airport, eating a really good cheeseburger at the airport foodcourt, then boarding an airplane. (A fossil fuel burning airplane. A carbon dioxide emiting airplane.) I then flew home.

    My original intent was to use the lawnmower and the chipper-shredder to do some yard work.

    However, instead, I took my son ice skating (his first time). We had a BLAST!

    The point being what? That “I harm myself and the evironment and I’m proud of it?” It seems a rather juvenile response to the enviro-nitwits. I dont like them much either, but come on, is that the best you got? This site has lost much of it’s witty humor.

    Thank you MtsEdge, we do the same. Not because some looney lefty group told us to but because the Bible counsels us to be good stewards and treat our bodies as temples.

    However, as many people today are non-believers, such reasoning would not work with them. And all I’m saying is; neither will the “I’m a jerk,” jokes.
