To these must be added another--knowledge of the products of our artistic heritage that mark the history of our esthetic wonder and delight.”

“Regardless of how you feel about peak oil or global warming, the increased use of natural gas is a positive thing because it is being found at a rate that is faster than that of new oil reserves, it is relatively abundant, and our reserves are longer lived than our oil reserves...

To just sort of sit and sing - that feels like the most natural fit for me.”
