"The truly ‘mysterious' object is beyond our apprehension... not only because our knowledge has certain irremovable limits, but because in it we come upon something inherently ‘wholly other'... and before which we therefore recoil in a wonder that strikes us chill and numb." - Rudolph Otto |

I recently flew home from Vermont, back to Denver, after being away for a week. I picked up the SkyMall magazine from the seatback in front of me -- you know the
magazine, the one with kinetic watches next to decorative pots that
double as litter boxes next to a hot-dog-bun toaster.
 On July 7, Live Earth will brodcast The Concerts for a Climate in Crisis from all 7 continents. Get it? 7/7/07 on 7 continents. So if you're in New York, you could see Kanye West and Fall Out Boy among others. If you happen to be in Sydney you could catch Wolfmother and Jack Johnson. If you can't make it in person (London, Johannesburg, Rio de Janerio, Shanghai, Tokyo, and Hamburg are the other venues. The Antarctica location hasn't been advertised just yet.) you can watch the whole deal streaming live at at MSN . So, what to make of Live Earth? Should we be excited or cynical?
