I always admired the guy until he seemed to
go off the deep end. It now seems there could
have possibly been a medical reason for that
due to his heart condition.

I feel the same way about Simmons. Another kind of bizarre thing he got involved with toward the end was his Ocean Energy Institute. The plan was to build giant windmills offshore of Maine and produce ammonia, which would then be used as a transportation fuel. O.K., maybe this idea is truly visionary, but I think we are at least 20 or 30 years away from needing to run our cars on ammonia.
