I have been quiet for the last couple of days, but several thoughts hit me yesterday and I will try and articulate them this morning in a series of posts.
First of all, let's talk about the natural food, vegans who are probably all anti-oil. Where do they think that pleather comes from? Sure they don't want to support the killing of cows as meat or leather, so they wear synthetic substitutes. Problem is, they are also probably against oil, drive a hybrid, but don't realize how many of our plastics come from oil products... including that pleather jacket they are wearing.
My point is this. Many people are against things. Especially here in Mill Valley. Problem is, they are hypocrites in the fact that there is no getting away from the very things they are protesting! Not sure if I made my point or not, but it makes sense to me.
Hybrids are a good example. The Toyota "Pious" has its own theme song now. As annoying as it is (I turn the sound off when it comes on), they still use gasoline. So how does that really help the environment, especially since our population is growing and the amount they save will be offset by new drivers in a very short time... More to come...
