I remember it well. It was an extra study day between the last day of class and the first day of finals.

Cheese & Whine peoples !

What is a fossil fuel?

All that oil and natural gas did not come from plants and dinosaurs.

We use 21 million barrels of oil a day in America alone.

How many dinosaurs do you think that would take?

Let’s see how their carbon conscious feels when their tuition skyrockets to $100K a year.

[mulligan]

So called educational institutions now teach ignorance and stupidity.

[vpintheak]

Kollege Kids are sooooo smart. I mean, we should just listen to them, and do what they want! I mean, they have so much knowledge and life experience; and with those marxist professors teaching them, how could it go wrong you know!?

[Arm_Bears]

And take away their cars.

"Children in search of a cause"

This replaces the tantrums they used to throw to get attention. Maturity shows up late with some of them (and never in others).

[hal ogen]

Shouldn’t the headline read “typical naive, parent-supported leftist students demonstrate their abject ignorance”?

[dfwgator]

Rebels without a clue.

[OldBullrider]

You are correct. Just as our bodies produce waste and gas (that is flammable), the earth produces the crude oil and natural gas. That is a renewable energy source. I only went to college for two years, I could not stand the level of stupidity there.

[Red Badger]

a Socialist’s Paradise!..........................

[M Kehoe]

Methinks NATE LEVINE believes this whole "electricity" thing is over rated.

[TruthInThoughtWordAndDeed]

Finally, a sane comment. You must be a Chemical Engineer.

[Bucky14]

The earth has warmed .07 degrees Celsius. That is enough to give children asthma. Just ask Stompy Foot.

[exit82]

No, I am a Civil.

But I did love my Chem courses!

[ExCTCitizen]

Nate Levine's family must be proud of him wasting their tuition on a protest. If he was my son, I'd say, "Don't come back asking for $$$, since you want to protest instead of learn."

The president of MWU should be removed for letting these children have a sit in... if I was the MWU president... they would be arrested in 10 minutes...

[ExCTCitizen]

What is the bus running on... foot power?

[Rummyfan]

Feminists United on Campus. FUC? Someone has a sense of humor....

[DaveA37]

I hope they sit-in long enough to fail from school, it tells me they are already dumb enough to be dropped. (And don’t forgive their student loans either)
