Al Gore was making a brief stop in Austin tonight to share his famous presentation on global warming–I’d seen the documentary but was still moved and informed by the end of the evening.  During the presentation, I digressed somewhat and was thinking how America never would have invaded Iraq if Gore was elected inaugurated, and we’d be out by now if Kerry was elected. Not only that, we’d be tackling more noble challenges rather than becoming fearful and myopic on terrorism. But without getting too political, I’ll leave it at I think there are serious mounting issues (environmental, domestic, foreign policy, etc.) that demand more of our attention.

Also, I’m working on overhauling brettbuchanan.com. Here’s a sample of what a gallery may look like–a little more aesthetically pleasing and much quicker load time. I’d appreciate any feedback on the new look.
