Because War Wastes Resources, Not Lives

I've got someone we'll call "Dana" making grabs for me at the Dana building now. For those of you that don't know, the building is home to the school of natural resources.

p.s. Thanks for making the grab, Dana. I of course really appreciate it.

'Fishbowl' is taking over campus.

I really hope everyone takes note of the phrase "Israel people."

This entry, in particular, makes me wish that I had poor bladder control so that I could honestly say that I wet myself.

Awesome Bon Jovi reference in cartoon 6. Though I would point out that The Author used the phrase "environmentnal conscientiousness," which is surprisingly not misused (given some of the other papers you've turned up.)

A little more ironic in the context than 'conscious' and it obliterates the song's meter even more :)

I really like the footnoted cartoons! What is that, CMS or APA style?

BTW, the foreshortened gun in comic #2 had me really confused for like a minute and a half. You know you've studied too much for finals when...

I think we have found a great replacement for U.N. Amb. John Bolton

Admittedly the author of this paper is a horrible writer, but the basic idea of the paper is legitimate. I believe the points the author was trying to make are that war wastes enormous amounts of natural resources and that war causes immense destruction to the surrounding ecosystem. People have a tendency to assume that the worst thing about war is that it takes human lives. The draft is very badly written (as always), but I don't think it's fair to criticize the author for leaving the human aspect out of a paper that seems to be about the impact of war on the environment. Not that I don't value human life, but the environment really can't afford to take one more for the team, and if anything is going to do in a particular ecosystem, I'd think war would be it.

On a different note, I always thought Dana went by "Scully."
