While Californians in America are fighting for ways to send America back to the 13th century, some Canadians are embracing science and the modern world.
39% of Americans feel 'green guilt' for wasting food, a much higher number than letting the sink run while they brush their teeth or not buying those stupid low-flow toilets.
The 2012 Eco Pulse results are in. So look for the latest marketing campaigns from environmental activism corporations soon.
Why does anyone do surveys on what people feel guilty about rather than what people care about? They do it to sell it to environmental groups and no environmental group raises money on a 'things are great' platform, they raise money by telling you how much you are a parasite for Gaia. The Eco Pulse survey tells marketers at Greenpeace, Sierra Club, etc. what your weak points are.
On-Cor Frozen Foods of Geneva, Illinois has the funniest product recall you will read today.
Now, product recalls are not generally humorous.
As Ian Froeb at Riverfront Times rightly notes, they are usually about serious stuff like listeria, E. coli, salmonella - and that is just in the organic food section.
The first man to walk on the moon
passed away today, a few weeks after heart surgery. He was 82.
The British may think they 'colonized' Kenya to teach them about civilization and the modern world, but it would be the other way around today. While over 80 percent of Europeans admit they are against any GMO regardless of whether or not they can be 'proved' safe - an impossibility anyway - and some Americans on the kooky anti-science left insist they are allergic to any product that has anything to do with GM sugar beets, Kenyans are downright enlightened about food science.
King Richard III, the last of the Plantagenets, ruled England from 1483 until he was defeated at the Battle of Bosworth in 1485, the next-to-last major battle in what would later be called The Wars of the Roses. If you're watching "Game of Thrones" on HBO, the Wars of the Roses were Lancasters instead of Lannisters and Yorks rather than Starks - the show has more dragons and less sex than the real thing. Richard III was a York and if you think that show has a lot of characters and craziness, try to follow the actual Wars of the Roses.
