I'm aiming for American Idol. Or The View. Is Hee-Haw still on the air? As for carbon Offsets, I have few illusions about their ability to save the planet. I view them as a way to inject a little choice into a marketplace dominated by big companies and entrenched regulatory bodies - neither of whom seem interested in offering any real choices.

At the very least you might end up on Good Morning NoCal or something. It's a cool idea and it's one that deserve some consideration. I have a weird, potentially flawed, twisted and rationalized perspective about many components of the "green life," even though the rest of my politics lean left+. But I'm not gonna kneejerk on this one and plan on doing some TerraPass research soon.

Carbon offsets are for real. Honestly, a carbon offset for a server isn't much; I bought one for the whole house, allowing extra for the home office and Web server. I live in a remote, mountainous part of Northern California for a reason, and I do what I can to keep trout in the rivers and snow on the mountains.

Are you serious? I only ask because I have never heard of such a thing. Mike Tom – I noticed you filed this under “entertainment.”
