we've done it before i believe, but we could have a diary about the program details of establishing a global sustainability infrastructure like Apollo or Gore's thing, so it all can be found in one place, perhaps even ongoing.

another thing, i have to report i'm certifiably insane.  Despite three decades of high-level fighting against the combustion of fossil fuels, i'm going to spend part of this gorgeous weekend in Germany watching the glitz and glamour circus of the fastest Benzin-burning vehicles in the world, now running under the world's biggest and brightest lighting system, as the Ecclestone ecstasy moves to that bastion of future capitalism, Singapore.  (OK, i dream of sponsoring Formula 1 cars running on renewably-generated hydrogen.)

Don't worry - those races don't actually happen in the real world.  They're all computer generated fantasies and special effects and the results are by negotiated and paid for agreement!

Thanks.  I still hope, some day, to write  diary that wins the supreme Oscar around here - a recommendation by the Crazy Horse!  Now that would be a collectors piece :-).

I'm thinking of doing one on the single malts of Islay....
