Along with Al Gore, I want to congratulate LAURIE DAVID for her Oscar win tonight.
She's an Executive Producer on the film and an amazing champion for environmental protection in her own right.

I'm so happy for them both!!!!!!!!!

4. You're absolutely right.
I thought of her because I know she was instrumental in getting the film made, but the entire team should be so so proud of all their work!!

8. Yes, I sure do appreciate her activism.
I guess I appreciate the whole effort.

It motivated me! I've been driving around my Prius, planning more use of solar energy in our home, replaced the lightbulbs, and am recycling like mad.

10. I know what you mean - my next car will be a hybrid, I'm looking for a bike,
I've got the fluorescent bulbs, I've adjusted my thermostat, I'm unplugging appliances not in use...it's amazing how small changes make such a difference!

13. Yes ...
and you feel a little better each time you do something. In addition to being good for the planet, every time I make a change, it feels like I'm giving the proverbial finger to the Big Energy Boys (and I feel great)!

3. Did you see them show Larry David from the audience....
It seems so strange to see him serious and out of character-lOL


Very happy for all involved...

7. I did - and he did look so serious, didn't he?
He's so funny - I think both Seinfeld and Curb Your Enthusiasm are two of the best shows ever.

6. If you check out the extras on the DVD
It shows the hard work and dedication, and the inpirations that they had when watching the film to allow the message to come through and be positive and powerful, and also the gifts they were given of film rights, access, and assistance. They deserve the win along with the Al Gore.

9. Ditto that.
I'm surprised that she didn't take the time to speak, but she probably provided all the production/staging notes for the original song.

Congrats to all.

14. Now if only Melissa wins for Best Song!
She really should - it's far and above the best song, even forgetting the connection to the movie.
