MASSIVE OUTRAGE...
in a back page story in the NY Times today, i learned that there is a bill in the senate offering the republicans, i mean the oil companies, an offshore drilling package. it would allow drilling 50 miles off shore in states that embrace it, and 100 miles off the coast of ANY state in the US. excuse me for a moment... WHAT? oil companies and republicans are insisting that it is just an election year token. democrats are surrendering what is a MASSIVE issue for a great deal of their base... how the hell will that help them in the election? first "clean coal" and now off shore drilling. why would we do this when we know that there will be no benefits for a decade? rrr. i am mad as hell and i'm not going to take it any more.
repeat with me:
what do we want?
renewable energy
when do we want it?
NOW!

- Heather Tinnaro
- Asheville, North Carolina, United States
- It will be a few years until I can step back on board with an eye to staying a while. At the moment, I still live in the mountains of North Carolina, in a small house with a piano in the parlor and a teenager in the good bedroom. But it is time to start dreaming. The nest is preparing to empty, and when it does, I should be ready to fly. Or float.
