He runs through the ins and outs of how our whole world runs on cheap energy<\/a>.\u00a0 My favorite thought is, “The real reserve currency of the world is the BTU and the dollar is the physical manifestation of it. The war on Russia, like the war on Iran, is as much about protecting the control of energy as it is ideology. What we are seeing is that the countries with vast energy wealth are starting to figure out that they are better off as partners rather than as competitors<\/strong>.”<\/p>\n

Ah, the British Thermal Unit.\u00a0 Metric units be damned.<\/p>\n

It’s about time Westerners figured out that windmills and solar panels mean poverty for them and their descendants and start figuring out where the energy source for the year 2200 is going to be.\u00a0 The Germans are pretty smart maybe they’ll start taking those nuke plants out of mothballs after they freeze their own balls off this winter.<\/p>\n

I have a hunch geothermal energy and hydrogen as a vehicle fuel is the way things will go but you never know.\u00a0 Funny things can happen.\u00a0 But windmills it won’t be.<\/p>\n
