Hi all,

As someone interested in how considerations re: economics and business and policies affect/influence energy-related issues, I took part, as a silent participant, in this e-conference, and found it, on the whole, quite informative.

Hope you too will find this informative and useful -- to garner knowledge for
public arguments for and against this now and later.
