Climate Change-Methane Problem
I've been vegetarian for two years. Can't imagine wanting to go back to meat.
I'd much rather be alive.

Presidential Debate - Obama Won Big On Green Economy
There is no issue we are dealing with more important than can our planet support life. it is key to solving our environmental, economic and educational crisis we are dealing with.
As demonstrated in the second presidential debate, Senator John McCain is WRONG, WRONG, WRONG, WRONG on green jobs and how to save our environment too. Senator McCain is clueless. The wisdom Senator Barack Obama presented is clear, invest in green jobs and technologies. Senator McCain wants us to drill and build many more nuclear plants, which he won't be here for when they eventually go into nuclear meltdown, like Chernobyl.
What was most vivid in this debate is the contrast of looking to the past or to the present/future. McCain is so past. Maybe his presence around nuclear energy has something to do with his cancers.
Obama is so CORRECT, CORRECT, CORRECT on the path we must take to continue with a present and future.
In my opinion, the only way Senator McCain can win is another stolen election. This is not an challenge, it is an opportunity to heal ourselves and our world.
McCain proposes more nuclear waste endangers life, if not ours, then those in the future who gained no benefit from our use. The problem of nuclear waste has not been solved, as putting it on an earthquake fault line under Yucca Mountain is not a smart idea.
We need to look at energies like solar, wind, hydro, magnetic and hemp biofuels and biomass.
Senator John McCain and Gov. Sarah Palan want us to "Drill Baby Drill". Does the phrase "Katrina my ass" have any meaning? America's heaviest hurricane hits are to areas where we have a lot of off shore drilling, i.e. the Gulf of Mexico - Hurricanes Katrina, Rita, Ike. Off short drilling heats up the ocean, making the environment ripe for killer storms.
Please vote for wisdom in the White House. Please vote Obama-Biden '08

Most Astonishing Health Disaster of the 20th Century
Medicine, Inc. is the leading cause of death in the United States.
This means if one is sick, they are increasing their chances of death by going to the hospital.
Ask Bernie Mac. Ooooops. Oh My God, We Can't.
Clean up the medical system. Do it now.
1. Literally clean up the hospitals.
2. Reinstitute 'FIRST DO NO HARM.'
3. Treat the cause of illness in addition to the symptoms.
4. Restore a healthy food system and alternative medicines like hemp.

Sens. Obama, McCain, What Will You Do To Restore Hemp?
Hemp is a tool we can use to help us save ourselves.
I pray somewhere in these upcoming presidental debates somebody asks the candidates what will they do to restore hemp, the will of the people.
Vote Obama-Biden '08.

Esoteric Agenda
Esoteric Agenda, is an excellent piece on how we can save ourselves. The link is on Google Video .
"Do not participate in anything you believe is evil" said Gandhi.
It is time to stop participating in our murders. Toxic combinations, i.e. Flouride, Aspartame, genetically modified foods, and corrupt governments must be reset for balance, the highest good for all concerned.
We only have a few years until 2012. Just enough time to fix our problems. Since technology is our key out of Babylon (we can speak the same lanugage through software) we can share pieces of solutions and create a world that is constantly improving itself, making life better for all.
The truth is within. Use the truth razor of only the truth is true, and cut through all that is evil, "live" backwards, working against life.
As Esoteric Agenda and my all time favorite book A COURSE IN MIRACLES says, there are only two real emotions love and fear. Replace fear agendas (toxic energy) with love (clean, safe energies like hemp biofuel and biomass, solar, hydro, wind, magnetic and algae).
We can do it!!! Start by listening to Your Loving Voice Within.
"Go Forward, go forward, go forward."
"I'm in a circle. Which way is forward?"
"Forward's in the direction of the Lord, Who Is Love."

Kucinich Speech Democratic Convention 8-26-2008
To survive, we need to solve our problems now.
Thanks Dennis Kucinich for this great speech. You had me jumping out of my chair in joy and hope and possibilities.
YES WE CAN SOLVE OUR PROBLEMS NOW

Who killed Chauncey Bailey? - OpEd - Response
Who killed Chauncey Bailey? - OpEd
Thank you for this great article. I too don't understand what's up with the Chauncey Bailey Project other than promote the party line and request money in the name of a dead reporter. Does Little Chauncey get any of that money? What about anti-violence programs or computer training centers in Oakland? Are they teaching others how to report?
"Why has not the Chauncey Bailey Project focused on the second reason Chauncey was killed?"
This "solved" murder makes no sense. Like 9/11, they are both government inside jobs.
Tell us more about the police story he was working on. Chauncey's computer was stolen out of the back of a family car after the funeral. "Finding" the gun even though the shooter reportedly left the scene speaks volumes to me.
Most of the focus on Chauncey is about his death, rather than the brilliant collection of his work, insight and leadership.
I pray your article on next year's anniversary is about how the mystery was solved and the people of Oakland were allowed to live in truth, peace and freedom.
We are overcoming now.

Has The US Government Done Stem Cell Research?
In a recent posting on the blog CaNORML was an article on how the US Government has a patent on medical marijuana.
While researching that, we came across this patent that reads like stem cell research by the US Government is involved.
Post what you think please.
US Patent 7378277 - Methods and compositions for transforming dendritic cells and activating T cells
AssigneeThe United States of America as represented by the Department of Health and Human Services
US Patent Issued on May 27, 2008
Abstract
Recombinant dendritic cells are made by transforming a stem cell and differentiating the stem cell into a dendritic cell. The resulting dendritic cell is an antigen presenting cell which activates T cells against MHC class I-antigen targets. Kits, assays and therapeutics are based upon the activation of T cells by the recombinant dendritic cell. Cancer, viral infections and parasitic infections are all ameliorated by the recombinant dendritic cells, or corresponding activated T cells. Therapeutic compositions and pharmaceutical compositions are provided.

Tim Russert Interviewed by Jack Blood
Did the stress of the 9/11 Truth Movement contribute to Tim Russert's heart attack? What was the impact of Scott McClellan's upcoming testimony in the Valerie Plame outing a CIA agent case? Should the press have known that 9/11 was an inside job?
To those who sit in judgement of Tim Russert, Know that he was a good man who was doing his job in difficult times.
Don't blame the messenger.
