Thursday open thread

Some suggested reads: 1. First off, we received a heads up from someone at the Council on Foreign Relations on this piece of theirs on gas prices (and then we said "holy crap, we're on the CFR mailing list?!"); 2. Good piece from Tom Whipple at FCNP (hat tip: Energy Bulletin); 3. The Energy Wars over at Newsweek; and...


... let's not forget to remind TOD readers in the Washington DC corridor of the Sustainable Energy Forum 2006 on Peak Oil and the Environment to be held May 7-9 at Washington, DC's Marvin Center. Please attend if you can, it's going to be a great conference. We know at least one TOD contibutor will be there, maybe two. [editor's note, by Prof. Goose] And, while you're there, say "hi" to Megan Quinn of Community Solution for me. She does great work...and she might be pretty close to the perfect woman. (but don't tell her I said that last part, please...)
