That Green Thing

Oregon, it isn’t the trace from one bulb that makes it seem “ungreen” me…it’s the combined traces from millions of bulbs annually, perhaps hundreds of millions. When the environmentalists talk of auto emissions, they look at the aggregate. It seems a paradox to me that they’re not looking at the trace mercury amounts the same way. I’ve yet to see how much mercury they’re alleged to prevent.

I like Mike’s thoughts; recycle first, then burn the rest to generate power.

This is akin to the environmentalist telling me in condescending tones that I need to recycle. I told him I do and I purchase used cars and used houses. He did not say much after that.

I love it when self-righteous indignation is met with self-righteous indignation. It gives me such hope for reasoned discourse.

Cig, what is your problem? You read way more into this than what was said. Are you that negative or ???
