I do not know, I am going to have to think about this one, and I donot
have the time to research this since I am getting ready to jointhe
protest at the Republican National Convention. This sounds more like a
fund-raiser but yet it also sounds like aself-serving professional
occupation to start a new event in this way,like one of those
$1000-a-plate political dinners!  As well, I do notlike the terminology
in "Hero of Planet Earth" designation, that isreally "rubbing me the
wrong way" a lot.  And there is no date,unless it is specified on the
website. Would any REAL and GENUINE environmentalist / ecologistwant to
attend a group convention called an Environmental Hall ofFame?????  This
sounds SO patronizing to me!  I do not feel likethis is a genuine,
legitimate "get-together" to honor real environmentaladvocates, or if it
is, I doubt very strongly that it will remain that wayover time but that
it will gravitate to egocentrism and superficialitythe way that the
various sports hall-of-fames have become!  Thisis just simply not
portrayed in a way that I can stomach. Libris
