Funny how NBC can preempt their scheduled programming
for Wimbledon but not Live Earth.

Imagine if just one major network was airing it live? How many more people it would reach...

Oh well. They'll air their edited version this evening. Better than nothing, I guess.

1. In order to wake people up a tad, they should broadcast the
fact that Mars once had water a plenty by some sources.... and just because there aren't reams of rusted out caddys on Mars doesn't belie the fact that living planets can die... regardless whether or not they are helped along with rampant stupidity and disregard for the facts such as they are.
