"Say goodbye to old man winter... say hello to sweet spring time"....Tim McGraw sings on his new album "Let It Go"... But wait, I am here inDallas, our first southern stop on our southern bus tour and am joggingoutside in 40 degree freezing cold -- and of course listening to Tim'snew album and smarting from the irony. Time magazine had it right whenthey described the planet's illness from global warming as being sickwith the flu and going from night shivers to a cold sweat. That isexactly what is happening. 70 degrees in January and 40 degrees inApril. That is exactly why Sheryl Crow and I are in a biodiesel busgoing thru the Southeast visiting college campuses to talk about theurgency of this issue and how everyone... everyone.... has to startdoing something. I would write more, but I have to go run warm waterover my hands and thaw out from my run.
