Happy Birthday Greenpeace



Happy 40th Birthday to Greenpeace.  I do not always agree with their tactics, and sometimes I  disagree with their short-term goals, but I am happy they exist, as they generally serve to:
.
  • torment those that would destroy our forests in the name of junk mail and one-sided xerox copies;
    .
  • afflict those that would kill our oceans in the name of all-you-can-eat shrimp at Red Lobster and cheap sushi at trendy fern bars;
    .
  • vex those who would bulldoze our mountains so we can continue to enjoy the "right" to leave the lights burning in our offices while we are sound asleep in our beds.
    .
