in contrast, it's comforting to consider that Greensburg, the Kansas town
that was wiped off the face of the earth in 2007 by a #5 tornado, was
rebuilt as an emphatically sustainable community.  their municipal website
boasts "The most LEED certified buildings per capita in the world."  It
seems not all Kansans are reactionary.

Wow is right - there was also a bill that both sides of the global warming
debate had to be taught in schools. Since there is virtually no science left
on the 'doesn't exist' side perhaps that could be taught in creative
writing.
