“Frederick, would you like to play another game of Parcheesi or are you ready for a movie?”
“Another game, Bea. It’s not as much electricity,” Frederick said to my mother.
“Oh really?”
“Yes, I don’t want it to global warm. Bea, do you know that spring is getting warmer and I don’t want it to be that warm.”

“Bea” recounted the story and wondered if Al Gore had dropped by Frederick's charter school today.
“I don’t know, but if stories are true about Al Gore’s electric bill, he hasn’t missed many movies.”

Hey, we don't just yap about it, from the amount of electricity we've cut out of our lives, we could probably watch movies until the Earth burns up.
