Eco snobbery happens. Don't let it happen to you! The warning signs:

1. Instead of giving out candy on Halloween you hand out compact fluorescent light bulbs.

2. You recently printed out 50 copies (on recycled paper) of the "worst cars for the environment" and your idea of a fun night was placing them under an offender’s windshield.

3. The last time you went to a friend’s house for dinner you made mental notes then on the way out, presented them with a list of ways they can better green their home.

4. You sneer at anyone with a Zappos box in their trash because their “Free Shipping Both Ways†platform surely encourages people to buy three sizes of the same shoe, then ship back the others.

5. You’re guilty of spending your spare time playing with a carbon footprint calculator.

6. When you babysat for your neighbor's 6-year-old you made her watch An Inconvenient Truth.

7. You've decided to postpone your New Year's party until 1-20-09.

8. The last time you were at a family picnic you washed all of the plastic flatware.

9. You've replaced local movie listings from your toolbar with Green Meet Ups - and added a 60 mile radius.

10. A new colleague sincerely thought your last name was Evangelist.

If you’ve answered yes to more than three of the above, you’re sure to help save the earth, but you'll be doing it alone!

That is a great idea! Must remember that one...

2. You recently printed out 50 copies (on recycled paper) of the "worst cars for the environment" and your idea of a fun night was placing them under an offender’s windshield.
That is fun... But THIS is much more fun! ;)

7. You've decided to postpone your New Year's party until 1-20-09.

The indians will think this is funny until one gets caught by an owner who beats the crap out of them.

The truble with damaging big cars is that the insurance pays to use yet more energy and resources to fix them - becomes planet defeating.

They are not damaging the cars, just putting out the air in one or two of the suvs tires.

Only in your dreams, they have lawyers that sue you. Just because you disagree with what someone is doing, does not give you the right to break the law.

Maybe in the US of A that is possible.. :cute:
