Al Gore is Tackling the World Today

In 9 locations around the world (including DC - despite the efforts of Senator Inhofe to get it banned) Al Gore is kicking off his Live Earth concerts to promote an end to Global Warming. For 24 hours, over 150 musicians and groups will entertain... live, on TV (3 hours on NBC tonite) and on the Internet, care of MSN.

I hope everyone participates in part of the event(s). This is really worthwhile. I'm getting on MSN at 10:30 when the DC concert starts at the Museum of the American Indian.

I tip my hat to Gore, although he has been saying lately tht he is no longer interested in politics and isn't planning on getting into the Presidential competition. Too bad. We need leaders who actually lead and do positive things instead of bringing more death and destruction.
