What's an hour between friends ?

I wrote Al a long impassioned letter, urging him to run last week.

Come what may with the Nobel, we need to double our efforts in trying to convince Al to run. The more personal the letter, the better.

Let's make our deepest desires and wishes a REALITY !! We DO have the power.

2. Someone else likened it to being Christmas Eve! Where will you be checking
at the witching hour? I'm going to nobelprize.org -- do you think that will be where it's posted most quickly? Instantaneously? (Not sure I can hang in much longer than 5am!).

21. The Nobel Peace Prize goes to
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and Albert Arnold (Al) Gore, Jr. “for their efforts to build up and disseminate greater knowledge about man-made climate change, and to lay the foundations for the measures that are needed to counteract such change.”
