[The opening of a pitch from Ralph Nader. On The Nation cruise this past summer, Ralph had one of his minions circulating around the shiptop bar announcing that Ralph would be holding forth at 10 PM in the ship's library on NAFTA and such. At 10 PM! Trying to lure people out of a bar!! For wonkery!!!]

Computer screens.

Monster plasma televisions.

iPods.

Video games.

Are we amusing ourselves to death?

Isn't it time we got off the couch?

And begin an outdoors movement to take back the country?

From the corporate Republicans and corporate Democrats?

Isn't it time to put away the screens, and the video games?

And get out and get some fresh air?
