1. Don't I know it...
I'm becoming fanatic. I'm scaring myself. I'm saving up for a composting toilet. I'm going to bed at 8 or 9 every night in order not to use electric lights. I've cut way back on my computer time. Environmentalism, yes, but more attributable to pure hate for these thugs instead. I'm trying to get a job within a few miles of my house so I can bike to work. I don't care if it's minimum wage or not. The worst is getting buying gasoline. I hate it, hate it, hate it. "Please lift nozzle and place money directly into BFEE bank account."

2. Alternative Energy
Solar and wind power are affordable alternatives. And inverters will allow you to keep on using your current appliances. As for your composting toilet, I suggest you start with a 5 gallon bucket and some sawdust. It will work, and work effectively.

4. Kucinich has filed to revoke First Energy's (electric company) license
Dennis has a 25 year old score to settle with the Illuminating Company, because they tried to grab Municipal Light company from the city when he was Mayor of Cleveland. Then the Illuminating Company tried to have Dennis recalled in 1978.

First Energy & its management are huge contributors to Puke (GOP) candidates. They are in bad financial condition, and I would love to see their assets sold in bankruptcy. First Energy was formed by mergers of the moribund Illuminating Company, Ohio Edison, and Toledo Edison, all of whom were co-owners of the Perry Nuke and Beaver Valley Nuke plants.
