Sustainabilty

When did "sustainability" become synonymous for social responsibility? I mean the word just doesn't conjure up visions of being "green." In fact, when did a color become synonymous for "sustainability?" Wasn't that Kermit's domain anyway? Who'd have thought that he would become reference in our blog? Just a few short years ago, I would have thought that "sustainability" referred to those girly-men out there who weren't able to prolong their manhood, kind of like Nathan who buy's Viagra in Club Packs at Costco.

Technology and Martin Luther King

Some people think that technology, like facebook for instance, limits normal social interaction, but I believe that it actually increases the likelihood that we stay in touch with a wider relationship network than we normally would. Think about the pre-internet days. Did we ever really get to know our neighbors? Do we still? How often have you entertained a block party? An orgy? I think not. So my point being that technology has allowed us to further explore relationships outside the confinement of the home, AND created a new world where people are truly equal. In fact, you can create an avator or virtual life that is completely separate from who you may be in reality. Race, color, religion etc. is not important, but may be quite obvious based on your published comments. The beauty of all this is people are judged not by the color of their skin, but by their character. Thank you, MLK. By the way, why do we always mention "creed" whenever we discuss discrimination? When was the last time you criticized someone over their creed? What does a rock band have to do with it anyway?
