    As Puck's Porter rocked me to sleep last night, I got to thinking about a question that's surely been answered many times...perhaps y'all could provide some light. In the history of our purpose driven race, is it the ideas, or the ability to communicate those ideas, that has propelled the "advancement" of the species?  Does it all really just come down to a good marketing campaign?

      Ohhhhh man! What a question! I personally think it's the ability to communicate the ideas via the head and heart. Like Martin Luther King Jr. His ability to passionately communicate and connect was awe and action inspiring! And I don't think he had marketing folks... ! Deep thoughts, I love it!

    Y'all heard of eco bricks? It's an eye opening way of seeing how much plastic we use. Bet we could get Ashland kids to start making these then we could build something wicked with them...

    Has anyone watched the documentary Cowspiracy? And if so, do you think all his data is accurate...cuz if it is, seems like if we could convince the world to stop eating meat then we can all keep driving our Hummers. :)
