...but I fail to see the problem in what Grassley said there. I don't want to change the way I live my life due simply to energy. That's why I strongly support solar panels, wind generators, and progress in alternate-fuel vehicles. I'm assuming that ol' Chuck doesn't support any of this, and that's the problem? Correct me if I'm wrong -- it is 2:45 in the morning as I type this, and I really should be in bed right now. In terms of expecting the light to turn on or gas to come out of the pump upon demand, well, we know no different than to expect that for it's been the case our entire lives, so in that sense I understand what Grassley's saying. However, there is a point in which we have to consider other fuels, for coal and oil are finite. I really hope ol' Chuck understands that, though I fear he doesn't (and I fear even more that I totally misunderstood the premise of this all in my tired state and reduce myself to Grassley's level, lol).
