Looking up

Focus the Nation is now finally revving into high gear. In fact, it feels to me like all things climate-related are in high gear. Students packed the room yesterday to hear Judy Bonds rage against mountain-top coal removal. I surreptitiously scanned the room - I was not the only one to shed a few tears at her proclamations.

Which made me feel a little better about this whole blog thing. I've been feeling a bit like Debbie Downer lately. But I'm certainly not the only one upset by this (nor am I upset by it all the time). But not feeling at liberty to talk about it for fear of seeming like Debbie Downer (which, by the way, is a good laugh), is a problem.

it's your space to do as much of both as you need to, though, right??

and how about that policy workshop of yours?? great turnout! I thought it was a good sign that so many people came to that one specifically. and if it weren't for you, it wouldn't have happened at all!
