Realize that twitching some damned bird isn't as important as someone
else's life.

I don't see it as black-and-white, either the "damned birds" _or_
someone's life. It is easily within our ability to cohabit the planet
without trashing it. More often than not, when we disregard the ecology,
it comes back to bite us later.


Any more eco-platitudes on tap?

I was referring to the stupid and dangerous habit of drivers stopping
to watch birds in the middle of traffic. People who do that are worse
than the ones who yap on cell phones while driving.
