    What are we doing to offset our Grattan Days' carbon footprint?

    Any ideas?

    We're going to forego the Mexican food so we don't add to the methane layer.

    doesn't Obama want to use coal or something? MaxiB's grill is coal so I think we're good.

    I will be home burning tires and old motor oil in protest of my inability to attend, but you can donate to my vacation day fund and stop this massive atrocity.

    I'll take four or five plastic grocery sacks into be recycled just so ya'll can feel better about yourselves.

    I actually just came back from taking 5 batteries to a recycler so that should help.

    Eat enough steak at the Timbers - that might get rid of a few methane producing cows. Between that and Seamus' leathers, I think we're good to go

    Several comments from me at this point...

    Yes the root beer is all natural and I pick up the keg on Friday. Icing starts Sunday night so it is available all Monday and Tues. Mixers are only available after track hours and you provide your own.

    The charcoal used in the grill has been produced from trees that have given 40 to 50 years of life turning carbon dioxide into oxygen. It is only rightly fitting that their remains are used to reduce methane producing beef, lamb, pork or chicken into nutritional products to sustain the human race and reduce the overall methane and carbon footprints of animals.

    In addition, the sauces made to enhance BBQ'd animals utilize natural products that if not utilized would result in over population and a decrease in the nutritional value or decrease in abundance of for example...tomatoes, sugar cane (there goes the rum), rice, wheat, barley, and by extension food for animals that produce the milk, and jobs for the cheesemakers, and subsequently no nutrition to support the kind folks that produce petrol to be used at Grattan, or Miller or Barber...

    Therefore, I pledge to do my best to support everyone, including the entire planet, by burning charcoal at Grattan to cook nutritious and tasty beef (while reducing methane farts) chicken, any meats, sausages or even vegetables to do my part to make certain this planet survives another year to another MCADX Grattan.

    Who is with me on this?!!

    In case anyone was wondering, the 'pull my finger crew' liberates insignificant amounts...so enjoy!

    OK so after that I will have to pitch in by not belching all day Sunday on the way up, and resisting the urge to fire up the owl oil candles later in the day.
