The thought of dolphins being ferociously slaughtered makes me ill, makes me want to do SOMETHING.

The logic of this argument is staring us right in the face. What do you intend to do with your lottery ticket??! Quite the amazing video and words of wisdom … Markets of any sort draw me within, lulling me into an inner frenzy, excited at the prospect of buying and supporting locally, lessening our environmental footprint.
