An Inconvenient Dinner

Friday night the Nordic ski team and friends convened in the Mission dining hall to take over the big TV from the football players. We popped in the Al Gore movie and watched it over dinner, much to the consternation of a few of our neighboring tables. Of course we asked if it was OK to change the TV first and they agreed, but some of the football players that came later weren't as happy as their friends.

While we watched we were privy to the interesting conversation going on. A few of them were trying to deny the existence of climate change, while some of their friends were a little more insist ant. The defining argument came down to "...all I know is its 60 degrees outside in January."

I'd call it a successful event. Next week I want to show Who Killed the Electric Car the same way. Perhaps more to follow.
