Today Glen Beck was on another rant about Gore's "carbon footprint" and how he uses a private jet to go around warning people of all these dangers, and how his house in TN has 20 bedrooms and 8 bathrooms and uses more energy in one month than the average US home uses in one year. But I guess he just wants us peons to actually conserve, he shouldn't have to. <BR/><BR/>It's just another cash cow.
