I guess we could just do nothing and let the polar ice caps melt. Bye-bye polar bears!
you do realize there is no way to reverse or stop any of that, right? if you care so much, turn a room in house into an ice chamber and adopt a few of those polar bears and breed them.

No gas guzzling plane trips for me! And I don’t think my house looks sallow or otherwise affected. Just fewer light bulb changes, which is very handy for the ceiling fixtures in my house.

Rob;
Don’t you know what’s good for you?
Yes, the government should concern itself with what lightbulb you use in your house, so that green people can feel good about themselves. They can take then their gaz-guzzling plane trip to the land of paradise -aka Europe- with peace of mind.
those energy efficient bulbs just make everything look drab and depressing tho. if youre into certain color schemes like i am, those bulbs can really ruin the entire look. when i tried them in my bedroom they made my green walls look really fugly and the brown walls literally like poopoo in a hospital toilet. no thanks. why is it so imperative we save the environment via fucking lightbulbs anyway? seriously, talk about a waste of money for something so insignificant that will do not good anyway. there’s bigger fish to fry, my walls looking nice and not looking like morticia from the adams family is NOT one of them.

I’m sure they discharged my brother to make sure he didn’t get a hospital-based infection. He’s still on immunosupressants, but 6 months later (2 weeks ago) they cut it down a lot. He stayed in or near the city for 3 months (surgery at Mt. Sinai) but he’s been home since October (surgery 4th of July weekend).
Arkady, you must have been really sick!
Yikes! I was in 21 days last summer. As I understood it, it was fear of infection that determines length of stay once the surgeons have done what they can. She probably needs rehab of a sort the hospital doesn’t provide.

Giffords to Move to Rehabilitation
Amazing how fast they throw people out of the hospital. My brother was out 4 days after his liver transplant!
I’ve had good luck w/ the candelabra ones.
Yes, I keep the receipts &, if I anticipate problems, the boxes.
