What a day to start blogging.

 Today, an 86 year old woman in North Carolina was arrested while protesting outside of Duke Energy's Headquarters. She put herself on the line to expose the hypocrisy of a company that builds coal plants while talking up their commitment to stopping global warming. And she did it because she wanted to ensure that her children and grandchildren would make it to her age one day. 

There were a few tears in the office today as photos of the Cliffside event rolled in. Something powerful is taking shape in this country.
