moi in indian express re. energy great game

may 7th

i do believe energy is going to be a big deal, and in fact it already is.

why aren't we working like mad on solar energy, the 'sood effect' discovered by iisc scientists, and so forth?

First, congratulations on the Indian Express publishing you.

Second, it's an insightful article as always.

i disagree on the previous posters first statement but completely concur with the second. the ie is an old hag whose editors are only good at s*cking up to 'madamji' - no class or logic in there. rajeev is doing them a favor imho.

As usual another excellent article by RS.
I am really worried about China jaggaurnat.

Good one Nizhal Yoddha. I am sure the left-wing journalism of IE will be scratching it's head in confusion over what hit it.
Anyways,here's something i received as a forwarded mail sometime back. Though it is not directly related to the article that you wrote for IE, it makes an interesting reading. Specially the allusion to Indian polticians specially Sonia & Brajesh Mishra's involvement in Enron deal.
I found the findings of this article particularly intriguing. Though one cannot vouch for its veracity.

san, please tell us more about the sood effect and why it does not have potential. yes, agreed that solar panels are too expensive, but that's the reason to concentrate on bringing the price down, because they will give india essentially unlimited energy. the business about distributed systems is true, i have said in the past that this is one of the strengths of indic culture, too.
