With record turn outs in the PA primary election, Earth Day really does seem appropriate, doesn't it?

Personally, I was shocked and awed by GW's two term reign of environmental terror, and I am almost afraid to actually feel hope.

They say cynicism is the last refuge of the idealist, and so I feel today, as I cast my vote, a wellspring of cynicism, and yet I am still thrilled to be a part of today's events. Thrilled at the possibility that we can turn this awful spiral our nation has taken around, and maybe even join together with the rest of the world to try and provide a safe, healthy, future Earth for our children to inhabit.

Hope is a lot to ask these days.
Hope is hard, fear is easy.
