Working in public libraries and for a progressive worker cooperative (see TorontoTheBetter for our labour of love)...my days are diverted with books, music, and the Web...

"Take no heroes, only inspiration." Well, ok, maybe the people behind the Hand Rooster cartoon.
You are: The Lorax
The Lorax is a story about the environmental impact of large corporations. Like the Lorax, you're a very nice person, and you're very aware of the world around you. You are more likely to get involved with political or activist causes. You also tend to be more down to earth than whimsical.
The lower your Grinchification score, the nicer you are.
The higher your Cathatitude/Hoponpoppiness score, the more whimsical and creative you are.
The higher your Loraxity score, the more concerned you are with the world around you, politics and activism.
