Have Your Thanksgiving Plans Changed This Year?

All over America, airports and highways will be jammed as people are on the move for the Thanksgiving weekend; it is the big American family get-together. But is this year different? (see Planet Green for directions for a Teleconference Thanksgiving) We have never had much luck convincing people that they should change their travel habits because of their carbon footprint, but is the economy making a difference?

Polls are supposed to give you a variaty of answers to choose so you can find one that fits. Why isn't there one for those of us that are traveling this year, but usually do not. The only yes forces you to say this is a tradition. That is a bit limiting. I have this issue with a lot of treehugger polls. They heavily slant the available answers. If you are trying to make a statement it is one thing, but it means the results are not very useful information.

No, my family is mostly local. Those that are farther away come if they can and, besides, we already keep in touch via todays modern communication technologies.
