 "Greasy Rider" is about a unique car and a "remarkable journey of discovery" about the importance of being "Green." The One Book, One College committee would like to extend the six-word memoir challenge to the college community: submit a six-word memoir around the theme of "rides," journeys and sustainability.   Can you tell the story of your most memorable journey or your "green" viewpoint in six-words?
