Actually, I was forwarded the email and was just inspired to bring up what you said as it had merit. The goal here is to try to talk about the environment in a new way, though if the vlog came off as self-righteous, that definitely wasn't the intent. I'm just glad you're sharing your views on here. As far as golf courses are concerned, I try not to worry about things that are out of my control... and the country club crowd is way out of my control. Cheers, The Green Rapper Sean,

Given the theme of this website, it seems that you might agree with the email contents if hadn't been mistakenly inspired by your logo. I wonder how you might address the apparently conflicting issues of golf courses and the environment without coming off as self-righteous yourself - if you even see a problem there. As I wrote back to your partner after learning of my misinterpretation, "Well, I feel like a dumb-ass (and not for the first time). Sorry about the rant." - Self Righteous Dude You are right to label this guy (me) self-righteous, but I wonder where that line is between self-righteous condescension and open communication about what each of us thinks matters.
