Be excellent to each other

World hunger bad!
Music good!
This July 2nd, a whole bunch of musicians will join together to help fight world hunger or as least help the citizenry get really, really toasted. Find out more information about Live8 here.
I did my part by signing petitions that will somehow or another kill a bunch of defenseless trees, and then sending annoying emails to friends asking them to sign petitions. If the G8 were smart, they could sell all these signatures(and accompanying email addresses) to direct marketing databases, and make a little extra money on the side.
I'm trying to be cynical here, but I don't think I have my edge on. This Live8 is a good thing, and I would be down in Philly to listen to the music if I could. Enjoy it for me, if you can. Give money if they ask for it. Relative to the majority of the world, we don;t just have a high quality of life, it's almost downright decadent.
