Comments by Pincas Jawetz (PJ@SustainabiliTank.info)

based on a very solid article by Thomas L. Friedman - January
18, 2006.

Thomas Friedman has done it again - see the article on the Texas
Instruments Corporation.

His points are:

- OUR GENERATION’S MOON SHOT SHOULD BE ENERGY INDEPENDENCE.


- ENERGY GUZZLING IS FOR DEFEATISTS - REAL AMERICANS - AND REAL
TEXANS - BUILD GREEN;
LISTEN THOUS PRESENT INHABITANTS OF THE WHITE HOUSE!

Friedman says that the President and the Vice President are guilty
of
“the soft bigotry of low expectations”
when they say it can not be done. We find his words to be an
understatement.

Thomas
