re: #193 So?

The nee “forms” of energy will never be here if we don’t put in a 200% effort into creating them. Right now, all that goes on is dabbling. Like nursery school kids, they (scientists) dabble. Yes, I agree transition is needed, it cannot be accomplished overnight, but I really don’t see a PLAN, like when Kennedy said, we will have a man on the moon before the decade is out. We need a plan and we need the smartest and the brightest to get together and link their brains and come up with some realistic kick-ass alternatives.

Follow the money my friend, until the prices of coal and oil go up, we will see only a half-hearted dispirited effort to look into other sources of energy. I’m completely on your side, but until we can completely wean ourselves off of foreign oil (let alone oil altogether!), all we can do is keep going.
