Dixie Lee Ray of "Trashing the Planet" fame. You sure know how to pick
'em Oz. Dixie Lee Ray who said it was volcanos and not
Chloroflorocarbons (CFCs) that were killing the ozone layer. Dixie Lee
Ray who helped corporations make a profit from damaging the ozone layer
for a few more years until their damaging effects, like "acid rain"
could no longer be denied. Dixie Lee Ray to whom Rush Limbaugh turned
for scientific support in promoting his pro-CFC-industry politician,
Newt Gingrich.

Aren't you coy Oz. Just an observer. Cute.

And when the Moon is full, a frightful transformation occurs.

Billy, if we are thinking of the same Dixie Lee Ray, what I remember her
most for is turning out the lights on the dome and playing train engineer.
Sad when those are the positive things (not that lights out was positive
but at least did no harm) that one is remembered for!

It was not a particularly good term. Washington is such a beautiful
state; she didn't do a lot to keep it that way. Not all women are created
equal. :-(
