BYU is heated by coal





Call the heating department, at (801) 422-5532, and ask them to turn the thermostat down so we don't pollute our air with all of that coal.

And next time you get cold, wear a sweater, you sissy destroyer of worlds.

    I'm pretty sure coal is a lot cleaner burning than it used to be. And they use natural gas on days with inversions when the EPA says no to coal. Would you really want your tuition to go up enough to avoid the coal?

    Annie, I'm glad you play devil's advocate.

    I'm not suggesting we burn down the smoke stack. We could save money for the school by keeping our buildings a little cooler. That could even lower tuition.

    Agreed...the buildings are way too warm. Someone in charge must hate sweaters.

    And this is why I blog, because I can't think of these things on the spot. But the main problem with coal isn't how clean it burns, but how it is dug out of the ground. Often they level mountains to get the stuff, and that has long-lasting consequences.

    Have you heard of mountain top removal? It is ruthless to the environment.

Palin refuses to apologize for stupid claim of foreign policy experience.

These excerpts are from CBS News Russia Is Our Neighbor Couric : You've cited Alaska's proximity to Russia as part of your foreign policy experience. What did you mean by that? Sarah Palin : That Alaska has a very narrow maritime border between a foreign country, Russia, and, on our other side, the land-boundary that we have with Canada. It's funny that a comment like that was kinda made to … I don't know, you know … reporters. Couric : Mocked? Palin : Yeah, mocked, I guess that's the word, yeah. Couric : Well, explain to me why that enhances your foreign-policy credentials. Palin : Well, it certainly does, because our, our next-door neighbors are foreign countries, there in the state that I am the executive of. And there… Couric : Have you ever been involved in any negotiations, for example, with the Russians? Palin : We have trade missions back and forth, we do. It's very important when you consider even national security issues with Russia. As Putin rears his...

How to overcome hate

One old black man defeats the KKK with kindness and humor. They burned down his church, burned a cross in his yard, and mercilessly taunted him. He always responded in kindness, and turned their hearts to him. We should use this as a blueprint to respond to those who hate us.
