1. the jacksonville naval air station (at least if she had to choose one specific research trip, to paraphrase maggie) 2. the convenience of modern central heating/cooling 3. 'deserve' might be a bit much... there are probably a lot of people who deserve it more/less than me, in particular. that said, i would very much like to read 'before the lights go out'. the energy situation and potential solutions interest me greatly, as i live w/ in a 20 minute drive of 4 fossil fuel power plants (in the second world petrostate of pennsylvania)... the cooling towers of the nearest are visible from my residence.
regardless, i would like to thank maggie for putting in the research and hard work to conceive this book. also, to thank her for her very relevant posts on boingboing over the yrs.
