Hopefully this concert can raise some awareness for the environment. Remember it was no less then 27 years ago when the great Carl Sagan asked, "Who speaks for the earth?"

1. You gotta love Al Gore and friends standing on a stage promclaiming themselves heros as enough carbon to fuel a large volcanic eruption pours out around them. And it almost causes one to laugh out loud watching fools such as Jeff Hoard praise such hypocrisy as an epic example of Al Gore's philanthropy. It's hard to decide if Hoard is simply an imbecile, if he's dutifully toeing the loony left line or both. Al Gore and Company are hucksters scolding you and I for environmental sins as live in energy guzzling homes and zip around in private jets and hummers. Get a job, Al.

2. Wow... how sad it must be to be you Mr. Robert Bynham. Instead of insulting people, why don't you do something positive about the environment we live in. But perhaps you would rather believe that these "fool" as you call them are nothing but nuts, because your leaders want you to believe that science is nothing but hugh-wash. At least those "fools" are trying to bring awarness. As for Al Gore, he is doing so much more than you will ever want to believe. How is it that you know so much about his private affairs; type of home, flying schedule??? Could it be that Fox News told you so??? Never mind that he flies comercial, but, why confuse you with the facts you have already made up your mind...( I use the word mind loosly, I'm really not too sure what to call it).
I hope that you, your children and thier children, all of us on this earth can live healthy lives and breat fresh air, and eat food that has not been poluted.
I don't like being short, but the fact still remains, I will be short forever can't change facts sir.
Peace

3. What I can't understand is why all these musicians have forgotten how Tipper Gore got Al to introduce legislation banning music sales based on lyrics back in 1985. It is funny that so many musicians pay homage to this hypocrite. Thank god that Frank Zappa, Dee Snyder and even John Denver stood up against these idiots at the hearings. How soon people forget (especially musicians whose very livelihood was threatened). How can they possibly make an opportunist like Gore their point man in this campaign?

4. I love concerts for a cause. It takes be back to the 70's. There are worthless by in large, not much more than another summer event needed to fill an empty stadium or something. An as far as over the hill rock stars showing up at these things, it's right out of the concert for a cause playbook.
Mother Earth has never had to many friends in any corner of the world. Al Gore (shallow Al)and his carbon credit crap, isn't anything more than ocean dumping. Ocean dumping didn't resolve the garbage problem or eliminate pollution, it made it worse. And it will be the same with carbon credits a few years done the road.
Shallow Al, and some people feel this sap would make a good president. We're seeing Al Gore for what he is and does, creator of inept solutions.
