Barbara Boxer's priorities


The economy is tanking faster than the Blue Angels fly. Every year, the world is losing greater value from deforestation than we have so far lost in terms of depressed stock prices.
The global economy is losing more money from the disappearance of forests than through the current banking crisis, according to an EU-commissioned study.

It puts the annual cost of forest loss at between $2 trillion and $5 trillion.
So, I get an email from Saint Barbara reminding me to get a flu shot, and they can't even get my name right...nor my gender. Email to me addressed to "Jean Rolley". I wonder if Jean got one address to Wes Rolley. So much for Governmental Competence, but then we knew that.
