Just realised that my method of doling out updings relies heavily on my hoping that the comments posters here make come to pass.

Colbert (and smart people with a good platform) will expose Greenwald for the pox he is.

That human beings will finally come to their senses and admit that our current economic setup is the classic shitting-where-we-eat scenario and demand government guidance to limit emissions, promote green, renewable energy and participate in the drive forward.

That the RWNJs of today lose their offices before the end of the year and that, in a couple of years, Rand Paul is humiliated by a candidate who has the interests of the people, in diversity and in sustainability at heart.

Now we just need a solar-powered machine that can transmute the coveted upding into action and reality.
Make it so :)
