Mother Earth has a way of shutting these things down ... Let me try to be like Morgan Freeman and earn a freckle, and explain.

To get the freepers to take the first step ....

1. Turn off Fox News and Rush.

Since watching that propaganda most nutters already don't believe in climate change or the end of oil means no power. Eventually when climate change affects their power supply they won't be able to watch that garbage and we normal people have about a week try and plant seeds of truth in their heads.

When the power comes back some of them might be able to try step 2. Admit they have a problem.
