[Tim Hancock]

I despise the word green. (that said, I like the idea of geothermal for my house which I may convert to someday if the cap/trade BS goes through as my house is electric heat)

I grew up burning trash in a barrel and hauling glass/tin cans to a dump.

I will only buy an energy efficient appliance if it will pencil out as a cost savings short term (new appliances do not last long enough to consider long term) or if the old one breaks and I can't fix it.

I think buying a present day hybrid or electric car is a waste of money and is anything but green as they typically run on electricity mainly provided by coal. They are nothing more than a way for folks to say "hey look at me... I am green".

I think large scale PV solar is a waste of my tax dollars as it will never be a cost efficient large scale producer of electricity.

I despise govt mandated ethanol which will never be a cost efficient large scale form of energy.

I think the only real solution to our long term energy problem is nuclear (at which time electric cars will start to make sense).
