Today’s moment of truly appropriate things to happen:  A school named after eco-hysteric Al Gore can’t open until they remove all the toxic dirt.  A large pile of toxic dirt.  Specifically, they have to excavate 45 feet in a pair of 3,800 square foot plots, then fill the gaping holes with non-toxic dirt.

In other news, this school is also co-named after Rachel Carson, the woman who helped champion the ban of DDT.  You know, that stuff that was preventing malaria deaths up until it was banned.  Millions of them.

It’s one of those singularly beautiful moments when the actual “contributions” made to society by these two are accurately reflected by circumstance.  Gore is not only a global warming hysteric, but he also weakened the trust Americans had in the electoral system when he tried to steal the presidential election from Bush.  So in the end, the Carson-Gore Academy of Environmental Sciences [Built on Toxic Dirt - comment mine] is perfectly apt.

All that remains now is to explain to the students that releasing their second chakra on campus is poor etiquette, and this place will be good to go.
