[pbreak]

Apparently you can make a pickle give off a fair amount of light simply by dropping 120V across it...

no, this is the first I've heard of the glowing pickle. it makes sense, just never thought of hooking a pickle up to a wall socket.

and yah, the burnt pickle smell would be a turnoff.

I think your sources are a bit off... I am a member of the Green Party, but although i've considered it, never have I had any involvement with greenpeace.

edit: I'm also wearing a green shirt right now.

Greenpeace is a great organization.... although they do employ very questionable tactics.

ps - ALSO wearing a green shirt :)

that's basically why i've never bothered with them... I'm really not all that interested in doing the street thing or doing one of their stupid little protests in front of the Art Gallery. And although I really believe protesting has it's place, I'm more interested in pro-active ideas that try to get people involved instead of just pissing them off.

Sometimes extreme tactics need to be taken simply to get any attention whatsoever, but I do agree some of their tactics have met with my dismay.
