Hi All

Note also the Peak Oil report just out commissioned by Bristol Council

We are like tenant farmers chopping down the fence around our house
for fuel when we should be using Natures inexhaustible sources of
energy — sun, wind and tide. ... I'd put my money on the sun and solar
energy. What a source of power! I hope we don't have to wait until oil
and coal run out before we tackle that.
Thomas Edison (1847-1931)

On a quiet day, I can hear her breathing"
