"What point in time would you like to go back to?" My last day of being 28. The next day, on October 16, 1973, OPEC announced a decision to raise the posted price of oil by 70%, to $5.11 a barrel en.wikipedia.org Or maybe the day B4 Watergate, if I could change things and stop it. Then, I'd still have Nixon to hate, but we'd also have a much better health care plan, a plan to deal with global warming, and, quite likely an energy plan which wouldn't have been killed by Raygun. Or back to and keep things the same, cuz it was so damn much fun, but, on that night in '74 when I thought about using compressed air as energy storage, I shudda quit the hospital, gone back to school in energy under Art Rosenfeld at Cal, and worked on that.
