    Combating "NeoSpeak"

    Those who control language, also control public perspective.

    Even with this knowledge, some of us still tend to bend a bit from the wind created by those who have the biggest bullhorn.

    To combat this, whenever someone flings something they think of as an insult in my direction, I simply smile with warmth and gratitude and say, "Yes, I'm a tree hugging, liberal, thank you for noticing".

    Of late, I've taken to thinking of myself as an "Earth Guardian".
    For me, it represents more closely, what I feel about myself in relationship to this magnificent satellite.

    I think I'll start working on some bumper stickers and/or window signs using this concept.
    Anybody want to try it on for size with me?
