The original suffers of AGS (Al Gore Syndrome) live in San Francisco. If you look in your Funk and Wagnalls under hypocrites you will find San Francisco residents-killers of Hetch Hetchy Valley in Yosemite.
"Generations of environmentalists have looked upon John Muirs unsuccessful battle to save Hetch Hetchy Valley in Yosemite as the beginning of their modern movement. And just as many have wondered if the majestic, granite-walled valley might some day be restored to its natural state.
The great irony is that the valleys demise was the work of the City of San Francisco, which now is home to many environmentalists who would lay their bodies down in protest if anyone tried to build such a thing today. But San Francisco is hooked: how do you tear down a dam and remove a reservoir that helps deliver 85 percent of a cities water?"
This are the same folks who demand you not build on your property--but steal public land for their water.
My friend Brian Sussman may not like this--but I support the return of Hetch Hetchy to its natural look. if San Fran opposes drilling for oil in Alaska where no one goes, refuses to allow drilling 20 miles off the Santa Barbara coast, hates nuclear energy, believes that solar panels will kill the desert, then stop stealing water from the animals in Yosemite!
Blast open Hetch Hetchy!! If the delta smelt is so important, then so is giving water to Bambi in Yosemite.
