I would like to see what you do with it. I am afraid the oil barons will never release their grip on the oil economy. Which makes any peaceful transition impossible. I would like to feel more hopeful! The fracking thing terrifies me. Water is so critical to our lives. It seems we have viable options in solar and wind power. And...what is good for the earth may not be good for the pocketbooks of the barons. Ahso, smile.
