Btw Joe, did you know that Iron Eyes Cody, the "Indian" in that old Public Service Announcement, wasn't really a Native-American...he was an Italian-American!!!
(...though ya gotta admit, the dude looked like he was right out of Central Casting for that part, huh?!)
Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)

i like watching old movies...mainly because they are better but it is always funny to see who they cast as asian, indian and the stereotypes they exploit.

  We think alike Do you get you seal clubs straight from the rain forest as well?  I prefer my Charger for the drive to the nuke plant, it leaves actual carbon foot prints, you just hafta wait for the tire smoke to clear to see em.

I prefer my F250 diesel. I didn't get to club any wild life, but did cut a tree down. Now that I know its earth day, I think I am going to go ahead and burn it. I was going to do it another day, but hell let us celebrate.
I have no faith in human perfectability. I think that human exertion will have no appreciable effect upon humanity. Man is now only more active - not more happy - nor more wise, than he was 6000 years ago.

We couldn't wait, we cut another tree down in the garden last week. We're looking to change the fire in the living room to a log burner ... second thoughts, we could get a multi fuel burner and burn coal - wait, wait! Multi fuel! We might be able to burn peat too!

I released the air out of those little chambers in bubble wrap , seemed like such a waste to have good air encapsulated like that . It's what I do to save our planet .

Good, Wade! I say the more molecules of 79% Nitrogen, 20% Oxygen and 1% of other inert gasses that are set free in the world, the better!!! (...yep, good for you, ol' boy!!!)

And, his tear was mineral oil.
However, that was a great PSA. I remember it well.
