Just some background about the poem Woody wrote for his tour:
The SOL Tour began in the Spring of 2001, when Woody decided to take some time off to bike down the west coast with his brother. They decided they would ride from Seattle to LA, get 'off the grid', camp in state parks, and speak with people along the way about their vision of Simple Organic Living. But in no time, this family vacation snowballed into much more.
First Woody's friends at The Spitfire Foundation persuaded him to speak at college campuses along the coast. Next, a diesel bus was purchased, which could run on hemp oil. The bus was outfitted with eco furniture, and a solar kitchen, and became their home on the road. But what's a home without a raw foods chef? Next, filmmaker Ron Mann asked if he could film the whole trip for a documentary, and well, what the hell. The SOL Tour kicked off in Seattle Earthweek 2001. As rumor got out, more and more people joined in, with as many as 10 people riding up to 75 miles a day at times .... friends, activists, even folks from the local communities. Eight weeks and 1,500 miles later, The SOL Tour finally pulled into LA.

This is woody that actor right (it looked like him...)?
The more I read the more I was pained by the suffering of earth. Some people are optomistic and don't see the dying. When systems evolve like this change is irreversible...
imagine this drawing: a turtle representing the epitome of his endangered species with a leash around his neck and in a man's hand... the turtle is trying but restrained by the leash to reach a door in the left with the word "extinction" on it, trying to escape the habitat we've made ill and the man with the leash is similing and blowing polluting smoke all over the turtle. The leash symbolizes our desire to keep the turtle for the immoral small aesthetic pleasure it brings us.

Man, when I was a kid, Woody was my favorite character on Cheers... little did I realize that one day I would be listening to a revolutionary poem from him over some downtempo electronic music with accomponying flash animation...

he can afford any perspective maybe because material wealth no longer is needed for him at all. That'd be better/funnier if it was Pee-Wee (from peewees playhouse... or the guy that dresses up as barney or something) that made this cool thing :)

See, I'd become a revolutionary if it didn't mean that I would go broke and actually become a bum.
