He concludes "The real problem is that the energy crisis is mainly in our heads — in our habits and comfort preferences." Of course!
and that needs to be part of a Modern Manhattan Project as does the need to mobilize and fund the science and ultimately the manufacturing (IN THIS FUCKING COUNTRY!) and distribution of the results. AND the modern Manhattan Project needs to get people elected who UNDERSTAND, AGREE WITH and actually SUPPORT this 'Project'.
