2007 Major Award

This year's Major Award for the most creative use of Global Warmening dogma goes to....*drumroll*....Sharp County, Arkansas.

Allowing sales of alcoholic beverages in the county would help the environment, according to members of a group called Save Energy Reap Taxes that is circulating petitions seeking a wet-dry vote.

"The people who live in Cave City have to travel 70 miles round-trip. That's a long trip just to get alcohol -- and that's a lot of greenhouse gases," says Ruth Reynolds, a member of the organization.

That Global Warmening. Is there anything it can't do?

I thought people in Arkansas helped fight global warming by producing their own alcohol.

Making good moonshine is a dying art, or so I'm told.
