Malcom Gladwell makes a case for Geothermal

Malcolm Gladwell says:

"One of the frustrating things about the current discussion over our dependence on imported oil is the persistent notion that real solutions will require some future technological breakthrough. I think we have a lot of the answers. We just haven’t made consumers and public officials aware of them."

Occam's razor, anybody? "Entities should not be multiplied beyond necessity."
