I came across afew interesting quotes about the clean coal buzz we heard so much about during the campaign.  But I am here ot tell you there is no such thing and we need to be vigilant about it.

New Year brings new opportunities

A Quiet Day of Mindful Appreciation.

As is our tradition, my wife Suzannah and I spend New Years Day in Silence with an agenda specifically designed to generate personal and joint collages. This is something we started 5 years ago to focus our intention and unity in the coming years endeavors.  If anyone wants the schedule just let me know I'd be more than happy to share it with you.

So much of my intentions for the coming year are centered around the changing focus on Green; green businesses, green jobs, sustainability, alternative fuels and other environmentally conscious endeavors.  I am finding myself more and more concerned with the world that my son will inherit from me and the generation that is now in full control of the purse strings.  I feel that we are perilously close to the point of no return in a number of areas and would like to find ways- actionably ways to pull back from the brink.  So I am renewed in my efforts to find means to cause action and change.
