Text of Gore Speech: or, Damn this sounds familiar...
I just effing love to say "I told you..."

Conspicuously absent, of course, is nuclear power.

1. what he seemed to stress
he seemed to want to say how far we can go with solar energy (and other renewables.. I don't think he mentioned tidal but that's one I think we'll learn to do a lot with) He compared it to how far we've come in such a short time with technology and computers and said we need to put our energy there instead of into digging up fossil fuels which will cost more and more. I mean y'all can read it :)

I took 2 short videos of the speech, very short because I had to clap. I'm trying to post them but youtube's locking up on me.

I hope I don't make enemies here by going to the thing yesterday. I'm not 100% in love with Al but anything that gets people to admit to change is good, to me anyway.

4. If it's of any comfort
The version linked to by http://blog.algore.com/2008/07/a_generational_challenge_to_re.html">Al Gore's own web site is not available.

YouTube says, "This video is a duplicate of a previously uploaded video."
