JaneAnne, I certainly can understand why you need our help to break this 4 way tie - all were amazing blogs with valid and very different points of view.  Honestly, I had intended to put my hat in the ring but got too busy and now I know it doesn't matter because I couldn't have possibly competed with such talent!

Dave's blog provided us with some new and very usable tools for  the cause - from the fabulous earth image that challenges us with the old adage to not "reinvent the wheel" to the new adages: "Sharing is Sustainable" and "the cheapest energy by far is energy not produced".

Jeff was amazingly eloquent and sparked a lively discussion that increased awareness even past the scope of the challenge.

 And Deb... Oh, Deb, she is the one I most agree with... If I had answered this challenge, I would have followed in her illustrious footsteps - in my opinion she is the most right!  We definitely are on the same wave lenght.

But in the end, if I have to vote for only one, I am voting for Sylvia because I believe Frances above is right - her entry was the most right on the challenge and the way she wrote the challenge to NAR ias a twist at the end was most compelling.  As an affiliate of my local association, I am ready to ante up, how do we contact them to get it started?
