      They offset the carbon emissions from the fireworks by, at the end of the day, rounding up the unclaimed lost children, then recycling them into burgers.

      Well that is what would happen if Polybore was running the place anyway. Would encourage the kids to stay close to their parents.

      The question is, what took the Disney Corp so long to get with the program? It is good that they have but it seems a little late in the day. This may be a demonstration of green purchasing power, consumers are more aware than ever.
