Got a fancy ticket for the Live Earth concert, Al Gore's huge, all-continent simulconcert whose mission was to "create a movement" to stop doing all the things we're doing to make the world hotter, wetter, stormier and generally a lot less welcoming. Although I watched the concert from an air-conditioned skybox whose windows were open the whole time and left with pockets full of consumer dross, it was actually pretty worthy all around. Al Gore looks like his life has improved a lot since the White House. Jane Goodall did a rockin impression of chimps' greeting call. And Miss Petra Nemcova... was entertainingly dim. Talking about surviving the tsunami, she said "I didn't feel hate for nature, I felt that the nature was screaming for help!" Anyway, it was a 360 degree eco-experience. Mostly.
