So I'm distracting myself and I think a lot of Senator Whitehouse since he refuses to accept defeat on the issue of climate change and keeps trying to educate his fellow senators and the public as well.
Last year I went to a 90th birthday celebration for my Dad's cousin Esther, really talented woman who is still making amazing quilts and her four sons are really proud of her. When I first sat down it turned out I was sitting next to her niece who told me that she just got in the previous night from her home in Rhode Island. So I couldn't resist, brought up Senator Whitehouse. I don't know if she didn't know who he was or what, but she turned away and started talking to somebody else.
