Lenny Beibel, a wannabe journalist, travels to an international environmental conference in rural Vermont, in search of a story that will put him in the big leagues. He sure needs one.There he meets Rachel Seagrave, EarthKare visionary founder. Rachel and her team of bumbling colleagues still cling to the hope that Nobel winner Al Gore will appear in time to inspire the faithful. But time is running short.Waiting in the wings is self-help guru Henry On Your Marks. Henry is the slick purveyor of JogThink, a self-help philosophy popular at business and sales conventions. How it could pertain to the environmental crisis is far from clear to Rachel and her comrades. But Henry is not one to give up easily. Renown for Creating Your Own Finish Line, he sprints onto the scene, determined to convince Rachel he is worthy of this gig, and worthy of her.But whats that, up in the sky? An endangered species bird thought to be extinct is sighted flitting around where the conference will be held.With a mad stampede of birders, a missing ex-Vice President, and a keynote speaker who may or may not be a fraud, Beibels got his story. Its just not the story that anyone planned on. from the back cover.
