The Energy Crisis

Now, normally I don't do the whole political thing on my blog here, but I thought this was definitely worth noting (a big thanks to Alana for posting it on her blog).

So at present, what are our political candidates plans for the energy crisis?

McCain wants to invest a couple billion in science and technology developing new ways to harness energy.

Obama wants to put more air in our tires.
Ok, that's not entirely fair. He's got other ideas. Compared to McCain's $2 billion over 15 years, he proposes $150 billion over 10 years.

For a full article on each of their solutions, click here.

So, until those 10-15 years of billions of government spending, what do we do? This guy, Pickens, seems to know what he's talking about and has a very interesting plan. Check him out.
