Happy Earth Day!

I guess the efforts of all those nervous nellies to save the earth must have panned out because...well, here we all are!

So, hats off to the late founder of Earth Day, Ira Einhorn. As Gregory points out, Mr. Einhorn was also a convicted murderer, but that is mere carping, a side issue that need not deflect us from our admiration for one of Gaia's early bodyguards.

He composted his girlfriend after killing her? I recall that he stuffed her into a trunk, and hid that in his apartment.

Would that be "composting"? Kudos to him if so! He kept true to his faith!

But he loses points for being a murderer. His net score is below zero, so ol' Ira is burning in Hell ... ... probably with a huge carbon footprint.

Look on the bright side! We have a two year reprieve!

I'm bummed, I missed Earth Day.
My Caballero is running well, the 383 stroker enging gets just under 10mpg.
I wanted to drive it but the tires are 7 years old and dry rot is setting in so I did not want to drive 90mph on a hot day.
So I had to drive my 16mpg Mustang. Darn fuel economy!
Oh well, there's always next year.

When she started leaking through the ceiling of the apartment below, I'd say it was close.
