Al Gore & The Presidential Candidates Can Save the Earth

If Al Gore and the Democratic and Republican presidential candidates truly want to help the environment they would take the one, obvious, action that could save millions of barrels of oil per year and substantially reduce the pollution caused by excessive and unnecessary driving.

They should use all of their campaign funds to buy, and then give to every family in the U.S., a copy of Geoff Williams' book: C.C. Pyle's Amazing Foot Race: The True Story of the 1928 Coast-to-Coast Run Across America.

After three hundred million people read about the grueling 3423 mile foot race across the U.S., tens or even hundreds of thousands of people will think nothing of walking to the nearby grocery or running to work instead of using the family car.

Just think, buying Geoff's work is one of the most patriotic things you can do. Gee, they should have released his book on July 4th!!

Anybody have Al Gore's email address?
This is a very good idea. One of your best, Oh-Father-of-My-Husband.

Dear Swami,

You are proud of your son, and rightfully so. But don't forget that behind every great man, there is a great woman. Hi, Susan!

I will stalk his book on the bookshelves.
