Ski Aspen

For a father of three, the hard facts of climate change ("Degree of Difficulty," February) are overwhelming for the future existence of my great-grandchildren (and yours). I always enjoy learning of any small armies digging their heels in, especially through political action. I hope you'll do more articles on climate change that go deeper than the alpine winter recreation business.

For Auden Schendler and Patrick O'Donnell to sing the praises of 20 Coke machines with motion sensors as helping level out climate change while ignoring the hundreds of private jets that come in and out of Aspen every year is the height of absurdity. What impact do you think a Gulfstream V with only two passengers on board has on the Rocky Mountain environment as it roars out of the Aspen Valley area?

The Sound of the Future

Thanks for the interesting article "Twenty People, Four Notes" (February). As a 52-year-old CEO brought up in the creative music world of the 1960s and 1970s, I was pleased to see that Robert Fripp was part of the project. After a tough day in the modern business world, I can't think of a more appropriate song than his biggest hit, "21st Century Schizoid Man."

John Mackey's $1 Salary

In years to come, we may no longer think it's unusual, strange, or suspect for someone to say, "I no longer want to work for money," as Whole Foods' CEO John Mackey did (Final Word, February). Rather, we may accept it as a sign of wisdom and maturity. As Lau Tzu once said, "He who knows enough is enough will always have enough."
