Sherly Crow Jumps the Shark

Crow (4/19, Springfield, Tenn.): I have spent the better part of this tour trying to come up with easy ways for us all to become a part of the solution to global warming. Although my ideas are in the earliest stages of development, they are, in my mind, worth investigating. One of my favorites is in the area of forest conservation which we heavily rely on for oxygen. I propose a limitation be put on how many squares of toilet paper can be used in any one sitting. Now, I don't want to rob any law-abiding American of his or her God-given rights, but I think we are an industrious enough people that we can make it work with only one square per restroom visit, except, of course, on those pesky occasions where 2 to 3 could be required.

Oh Ms. Crow. This type of extremism does nothing to help the cause of Global Warming. I'm not even convinced of the totality of the environmental problems we have. I do know that after it rains you shouldn't swim in the ocean due to bacteria. There are a ton of issues to attack including making sure we do a good job of recycling and not littering. Limiting our use of toilet paper isn't quite the tactic to take. Common! 2-3 squares after a big crap? Give me a break. I think Ms. Crow should live with her toilet paper limitations for a couple of months then see what she thinks.
