A Congressman was seated next to a little girl on the airplane leaving from Dallas when he turned to her and said, 'Let's talk. I've heard that flights go quicker if you strike up a conversation with your fellow passenger.' The little girl, who had just opened her book, closed it slowly and said to the total stranger, 'What would you like to talk about?' 'Oh, I don't know,' said the congressman. 'How about global warming or universal health care', and he smiles smugly. OK, ' she said. 'Those could be interesting topics. But let me ask you a question first. A horse, a cow, and a deer all eat the same stuff - grass. Yet a deer excretes little pellets, while a cow turns out a flat patty, and a horse produces clumps of dried grass. Why do you suppose that is?'

The legislator, visibly surprised by the little girl's intelligence, thinks about it and says, 'Hmmm, I have no idea.' To which the little girl replies, 'Do you really feel qualified to discuss global warming or universal health care when you don't know $h1t?
 
that is as simple as it gets, and oh so truthful, i watched a documentary in the early seventies, as a young lad in the greensboro, nc public library. the special talked about how we would be walking around in space suits by the year 2000, just to breath.
this referred to the metro cities.

i respect nature and the environment, but i have to wonder about the spotted owl lovers and tree huggers at times, i believe that they have hidden agendas at interest and it has to do with lined pockets...

Thanks! Yes, every once in awhile I make a couple new ones. I feel better about short posts with using them occassionally rather than always typing them. Depends on how OCD I am that day.:o

Deer are browsers,not grazers. They will starve to death in a hay field. Why? Because they don't eat grass. Okay, they will eat new shoots of grass, but as a rule they are not grass eaters. What was that little girl thinking?

well... they eat some grass. I think the fact that the congressmen also did not know this proves her point even more, he doesn't even know where it came from in the first place :p
