Emails from the Public!

I thought I'd start out today sharing some great emails I received from the website at work. Working in renewable energy, one encounters some interesting folks...

"yYour web site is cool. it has inspired me to use renewable resources. I got one of those flash lights. the ones whee you shake for 20 seconds and last for an half an hour. Those are my favorite. I carry them in me pink purse. Now everyone asks me, "do you have the renewable flash light?" And i say "Ya i have it in my pink big flashy purse". I love all of your ideas. But there is one thing i hate!...... Farms? i mean farms! i hate the smell of cow pies and pig mud. And rotten chicken eggs. Couldn't you of said...."Make yourself a cabin. log cabin at least. Or with a fire place that burns wood. That isn't waisting. Is it. But the whole red shack is gone! And those take your money on feeding the animals and farming the gay corn. You need money for those machines don't ya. That is my comment thank you."

Wow. From a Big Pink Flashy Purse to Gay Corn.
Sadly her irrational homophobic fear of corn products will blind her to the great advances coming in the field of bio-diesel. She'll end up alone, in the dark, shaking her flashlight and crying out, "Ya! Dontcha love my purse? I use renewable resources!" while the world moves ahead without her.

A few days later I received this email--which was sent to the email address for our multi-family housing program:

"Call out Gouranga be happy...

Gouranga Gouranga Gouranga

That which brings the highest happiness!"

Perhaps I should forward this to the cornophobe...she could use some high happiness.
