No, this is not about St.Patrick's Day! Last year, when Hillary Clinton went to the State Department, she held a general meeting with the employees. One of the requests came from someone who was trying for a smaller carbon footprint by biking to work: was there a chance they could have showers installed for the bikers? Secretary Clinton promised to look into the possibility. As we know, she is always as good as her word. She looked into it, and found a way to get it done. The first item on her agenda yesterday was the ribbon-cutting for the showers. The event is pictured below. I wish we could see a video of this event because I am willing to bet she was funny. I love the green ribbon strung across the bikes. :)
