Is My Hair on Fire?

In this blog so far I've been exerting superhuman powers to keep my posts family-friendly. No swear words, sudden bursts of agonized obscenity from the depths of my being, or nasty name-calling. Lots of time here to censor myself. So it makes me very happy to find someone else just as angry (see? I didn't say p.o.'d.) as I am, and far more capable of expressing it - while still keeping it clean and virtuous.

This column, by Caroline Arnold, titled "Oil, CO2, Environment, Climate, War," manages to work in almost every subject that makes our Blue Voice blood boil. Just from her first paragraph you can tell she's about to spontaneously combust:

This year there are real, physical issues for the humans on Planet Earth. We hear hints of them when our mainstream media can tear itself away from runaway brides and the gong-show in Rome, where old men in red dresses and lacy rochets fiddle around with edicts about sex and sin while AIDS smolders, populations explode, and fossil fuels burn steadily worldwide

Do read the entire article, it's short, and you'll feel better for it, I assure you. I love fellow ranters.
