"But Dennis Lee aside, what is YOUR solution(s)to the energy problems? These tin horn dictators are hassling us over oil, n.gas; where are your solutions to freedom from foreign oil?"
We have plenty of energy available, it's just not as cheap as foreign oil.
Supply and demand market forces, yes? Cents/KWH ; $/gal of gas...it all comes down to the cost of doing business, yes? Solar? Sure, it's there, it's just too expensive. Wind? Sure, it's there, it's just too expensive. Nuclear? Sure, it's there, it's just too expensive. Ethanol? Sure, it's there, it's just too expensive....So everyone, get used to it, cheap energy days are either over, or just over the horizon.
