On cap-and-trade, I have to go with Krugman the
economist over Hansen the scientist... but there
are areas in energy policy where I think it's
clear Krugman is in error-- he's been convinced
that we can solve the climate change problem
primarily through ramping up use of wind and
solar. He's in denial about their limitations,
and the need for a "do everything, including
nuclear power) strategy.

I'd like to sit him down and make him watch some
of Saul Griffith presentations at the Long Now
seminars... maybe he'd get it then.                        http://longnow.org/seminars/02009/jan/16/climate-change-recalculated/

On the other hand, maybe all it will take is the IPCC
recommendations that Suzanne Waldman wrote about...

      (No luck there, as far as I know.)
