ultimart anti-blog

back in 2003 i started a blog. after spending too much time crafting 3 - 5,000 word entries for it, i came to the realization that few people wanted to read what was on my mind or in my life. so, i decided to do a little something different. i would write absolutely nothing! now i post music, movies, essays, news articles, etc. written by others (with only a few words from myself)... and everyone seems to like this 'anti-blog' thing a lot better.

one hour of no power: kinda like that scene in 'The Day The Earth Stood Still' but not as scary 11MAY2007

i will be in the skies -over a vast ocean- riddled with guilt, so i ask that you consider taking my place in what is described in the following...

everyone concerned about the effects of climate change will turn everything off for an hour on Sunday, July 1st. this means one hour with no cars, mobile phones, televisions, household appliances, no heat for that inhumanly frigid garden level apartment... the world will be unplugged for an hour.

One Hour No Power is an event to raise awareness of our collective ability to tackle climate change through our everyday lives... it is up to you how you spend the hour. as i said, i'll be in the sky over a vast ocean -sitting in an economy class seat with about 200 strangers... while we eat prefab omlettes, read the inflight magazine and doze-off while re-watching 'Music And Lyrics' we will be giving purpose to One Hour No Power by emitting over a ton of CO2.

i'll plan to take the 2nd off as a day off no power (sleeping off the jet lag) and i'll do my Al Gore best (see www.climatecrisis.net for a start) to research the best way to counter the effects of my kerosene-fueled air travel . if you aren't flying over vast oceans on July 1st, try switching-off for an hour.

please visit www.onehournopower.com for more information about how you can join in and help to promote One Hour No Power by spreading the word to friends and family. [parts of this entry were edited from the One Hour No Power press release.]
