'(In) The End' of Live Earth

Just days after Mr. Gore's son took the whole "go green" message a bit too far, the former VP's real child, Live Earth, is now under way. I realize Gore's bday isn't really 7/7/07, but it might as well be, so he could have even more to celebrate about. Among the 100 bands playing in today's 24 hour, pancontinental concierto include The Police, Foo Fighters, Kelly Clarkson, and Enrique.

I just thought it kinda crass and a bit hypocritical that Linkin Park's set, when they played Japan just hours ago, closed with "In The End." I'm sure this is the message Al Gore wanted to send to the world about climate change:

"I tried so hard, and got so far, but in the end it doesn't even matter."
