John Holdren as Science Advisor Posted by Moira Whelan

I was thrilled to get a press release from my old stomping grounds, the Belfer Center, just moments ago, indicating that John Holdren would be Obama's Science Adviser.

John Judis labels him "the Mick Jagger of Climate Change" and I'd have to agree. Within moments of meeting John I felt guilty for not knowing everything about the topic and doing everything I could to work for the issue.  John is an adviser to business leaders, heads of state, and countless other big wigs. But perhaps most impressive were his efforts to educate the Kennedy School grad students on the issue. Through his classes and mentoring, Holdren has converted an entire generation of national security policy leaders who are quite sure that they will ignore energy issues at their peril, and if they do not make it a priority, it is akin to professional malpractice. His message is the same to every audience, because he believes we all have a part. He is truly a Paul Revere.

Then of course, there's the fact that he is incredibly gracious and pleasant and will be a wonderful addition to the sharp elbows of Washington.

Congrats John.

I remember meeting John Holdren when he was a young fellow at Caltech and working with Professor Lester Lee. He would come to meetings and write continuously, taking down information on energy conservation and new development of energy sources. I am thrilled to know that Obama has chosen John as his science advisor. What a change Obama has made by choosing someone dedicated to real science!

Dear Mr. Holdren,

I have been following the national debate on alternative energy and I have a solution.

EmpowerGlobal Private Equity Fund (my company's) mission statement is to roll up our sleeves and address the urgent needs of generating profitable, responsible "green" infrastructure investment that will create community jobs and impact opportunities in public relations.

We are working hard on the science side to be climate leaders in reducing carbon foot-prints, and we have "shovel ready", cost effective green energy solutions.

As a quick summary:

* Current subsidized large scale wind farm systems cost approximately $5-6M per rated megawatt with a payback in approximately 14 years;
* A recent Utah 10 megawatt rated geothermal plant cost approximately $8M per rated megawatt with a 20 year projected payback; and
* A recent Pima County, AZ government 1 megawatt solar contract grant was awarded at $3.5M per rated megawatt with a 20 year payback.

You will, therefore, come to appreciate the benefits of our disruptive, cost effective, un-subsidized offer. Because we are at 100% capacity utilization at only 7 MPH of wind:

* For every $3M commitment, EEG-K'Air will deliver between 1 - 1.3 megawatts of rated electricity per hour;
* Do it 14 - 18 months from receipt of the contract and money;
* The EEG-K'Air investment payback should be less than 6 years.

We are scalable, and you can see that we are at a fraction of the current competitive infrastructure cost if we can get a green "take or pay" sales contract at $.15 per kilowatt or better.

For the right investor/end-user, we could produce unlimited capacity...and therefore make a wonderful partnership.

(Please also realize that on a national scale, no trillion dollar copper wire delivery system would be needed with EEG-K'Air because our compressed air and energy generation Units are de-centralized and can hook up to any Island grid, anywhere on top of a building or in the desert...)

When successful this creative, long-term "green" infrastructure growing exercise may empower you amongst your colleagues who might like to take your advise and partner with an upcoming leader in energy diversification.

I would be honored to send you our NDA and data room confidentials and meet with you at your earliest convenience.

Cordially,
Keith Hooper

Holdren display a well balanced view of modern science and care about modern dangers prompted by some techniques. This two aspects are clearly presented first, when he deals with those that use skepticism against evolution but in a implict form, the second part, with his carefull considerations of some use of self-censoring in subjects that could favour bioterrorism. His comparison with previous time of nuclear physics are well made.

There are still a lot of fees that you must pay after hiring a defense

lawyer. Some other expenses are charged to you during the process. Some

additional fees that will cost you are process servers, witness fees,

depositions, record copies, transcripts, expert witnesses, depositions

rooms, and government documents.

If they split 3 ways or 4 ways, the sunnis and the kurds could often be the Sohbet swing votes in the politics. If they felt they had political clout out of proportion to their numbers, they could settle in Sohbet and do politics and not feel oppressed.
