Great post Frank, well put.
I've been mulling over lately how sick I am of hearing about "green" this and that in my travels. Like the new wireless keyboard I saw at Best Buy last night that touts its solar-charged and has less packaging so somehow its "green"... Or people buying CFL's and "greener" water bottles to save the planet. All these great little "green" steps people tote home proudly in a reusable bag, driving a shiny new 4x4 SUV or 2500HD the 40 minute drive to the 'burbs at 15mpg. Or the really green folks get a x-over and get 22mpg. Hypocrisy... once again great post.
I'm done ranting now
