Lane - the engineering component of the analysis would show up in understanding the feasibility of changing the structure of our energy infrastructure. To simply say we must do solar and wind is an example of simply not understanding where energy comes from. I truly believe there are people who do not know that oil comes from wells, gasoline from refineries and metals from mines. What they do know is that all of those things are to be fought - and then they wonder why commodity prices are rising.

The whole political spectrum has bought into the ethanol debacle that is now being scene as an environmental threat - and not a solution.
