A maverick monkey on Wall Street, exceeding his carbon foot print, wasn't really a maverick, but actually a first dude who refused to go green !3
I actually like the this comment the best:
"If I see one more corporation declare itself 'green,' I'm going to start burning tires in my backyard," wrote Ed Hardiman of Bristow, Va., in his submission.

Where the heck is Sommerville, MA?
I know where Somerville, MA is.
Hmm, must be an extra 'm' left over from adding 'monkey' to the name.
