Word of the Day > Word of the Day: NIMBY and BANANA
I knew NIMBY (Not in My Back Yard, usually in reference to a garbage dump, power station, etc.). BANANA is a new one on me:
It is no longer not in my backyard. It is BANANA; build absolutely nothing anywhere near anything. It has been that way for a long time. In the long run things are going to start to stop working if we don't do something. But once the lights start to go off, the environmental movement will be completely discredited. That will be a sad thing. The fanatics are going to destroy their own movement.
Hat tip to a Hit & Run commentor.
