Your connections are good ones Honestly. That's why I made the post. A secondary thought - where was any mention of self-sufficiency?

Thanks for the article about Yukos. It sounds like a complicated plot. I agree that we need to be more self-sufficient. I drive a car that gets 35-40 mpg (Echo) and live in a condo with east/west exposure to limit my heating/cooling consumption. Is it an exaggeration to say that there is an impending energy crisis? We sure can't count on the government to tell us if there were.
