We marvel that a hundred years ago some scientists thought that a man could not survive traveling over 25 miles an hour. I believe that people of the future will marvel that we wasted billions of dollars and dozens of years on ideas such as Earth Day and Global warming when the solution to all our energy and pollution problems was within easy grasp. Our real problems are political, regulatory and legislative. If government clears the way, American can stop paying tyrants, terrorists and dictators for oil. Once that oil money vanishes, all the world's trouble makers dry up and blow away. We have all the energy we need now in the form of our own nuclear power,oil, coal, and natural gas. If we fund research into solar and even more exotic forms of alternative energy the future will be secure as well. Keeping the cash at home will make us economically secure. Not turning corn into ethanol will get the world fed again. Getting rid of our addiction to foreign oil stops all oil wars. Few things are more wasteful, expensive, or kill more people needlessly than oil wars.
