Thought of the Day

Someday, all these technologies will come together. The Buck Rogers vision of the future is an electricity “ecosystem” built on a smart grid through which bountiful forms of clean, domestic power course into stylish electric vehicles and abstemious buildings outfitted with smart appliances that can run the dishwasher or dry the laundry at whatever time of day power is cheapest (in the future, rates will float to reflect demand), thereby lowering your already scandalously low and guilt-free energy bill even farther. Blackouts and price spikes, like Dick Cheney and Enron, will be relics of a distant age, and Jimmy Carter will be fondly recalled as a man ahead of his time.

Joshua Green, talking about the Pixie Dust New Energy Economy. It is difficult to imagine an intelligent man like Mr. Green could be more wrong.

"Carter will be fondly recalled as a man ahead of his time"

He was a man ahead of his time. He gave us 1999 prices way back in 1979.
 
Very good.
