The Thomas Friedman lecture last night was wonderful. My 16-year-old sat and listened intently. I think that maybe hearing someone other than his Mom say these environmental things is going to help him see that it isn't just my rantings and ravings around here.

Now if he'll just take shorter showers and turn off more lights when he leaves the room. :)

There is so much I want to do, to read, write, and think about, and it is so difficult in a cluttered environment. I simply must speed up some of this clearing out.
