You're starting to sound a little like a cranky old man. How about a solution to global warming, then, hmmm Mr. Manly Musings? I would love to hear your ideas on how we can all be "green". Maybe your readers have some good ideas too... I heard that if we all used one less paper napkin at fast food restaurants, it would save millions of tons of garbage going into our landfills each year. So what are you doing to be "green"?
