                    [Summary] => 
Two recent briefings I attended last week and this week give me hope that despite our current energy problem brought about by the Middle East war started by the United States and Israel, our country will move quickly and finally transition to more sustainable and renewable  energy sources that rely on our abundant solar and wind power resources,  hopefully ending our overdependence on imported crude oil from the Middle East and on the environmentally destructive use of coal to power our industries.
