For better or worse, I want things done quickly. Don't get me wrong: I don't want them to cut corners or deliever a poor system...so perhaps I should have said "As soon as possible". I'm of the opinion that if there is another great war; it is going to be over energy/oil. I don't want our country to have chips in that game...so I want out now, even if that means taking a leap of faith before mapping out the jump.

I agree to some extent, we need out of that situation of middle eastern oil, and we could do it and do it is less than 5 years by using our own resources, while at the same time developing new ones, I don't mean not developing new alternatives to fossil fuels, I am just in favor of doing it along with increasing our own independent resources that are already available.
I have an Idea, To create an agency like NASA and have their one and only duty to create an alternate clean form of energy and have it available in less than 10 years. Similar to putting a man on the moon. Look at all the inventions and advancements we made just by doing that. Who knows what the Scientisits will come up with if left to their own imaginations... This instead of letting the politicians and enviromentalists argue over what to persue.
I just have a feeling the real answer to the energy problem has not been invented yet. but it may be just around the corner.
