When the fog rolls on the bay,
sunny day don't bring no way out-
So let's just all
throw some fuel up on the fire-
lest we forget
that hands were made for holding hands
and eyes
for meeting eyes

Instead of Making Art

"Most of us spend many hours each week watching celebrated athletes playing in enormous stadiums. Instead of making music, we listen to platinum records cut by millionaire musicians. Instead of making art, we go to admire paintings that brought in the highest bids at the latest auction. We do not run risks acting on our beliefs, but occupy hours each day watching actors who pretend to have adventures, engaged in mock-meaningful action.

This vicarious participation is able to mask, at least temporarily, the underlying emptiness of wasted time. But it is a very pale substitute for attention invested in real challenges. The flow experience that results from the use of skills leads to growth; passive entertainment leads nowhere. Collectively we are wasting each year the equivalent of millions of years of human consciousness. The energy that could be used to focus on complex goals, to provide enjoyable growth, is squandered on patterns of stimulation that only mimic reality."

Yet Another Obstacle for Clean Energy

http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,475507,00.html

Gist: Oregon, among other states (possibly even rhode island!), is getting turned onto taxing people by mileage rather than gasoline. How you ask? By installing GPS systems in new hybrids to track peoples driving. This will show when people leave the state, where they've been, and what times they were driving. This system will communicate with then pump when you refuel and charge you accordingly.

I'm always suspect of conspiracy theories and to me this seems like an idea the oil companies might support for a few good reasons. These aren't being installed in old gas guzzlers; only the new, effiecient, environmentally friendly, and non oil dependent ones. This threat on drivers privacy could stand to turn people off from using alternative energy.

I would not want to play the oil company in monopoly.
