Superb. Both of you.

Emmet, you give us hope that your generation will see through the "Cos Play" and get on with a realistic discussion of the tradeoffs. Then act within the boundaries of physics and economics with the proper balance.

Some of our favorite Cos Play Charlaticians of 2022:

Drama teacher Trudeau (the "Canada-Germany Hydrogen Alliance". But couldn't make the "business case" for CDN LNG...)

Habeck the Magnificent

I DO remember what happens to Presidents with $5 gas Joe (1 million bpd from SPR while reading polls and smiling at his base with the "who am I to know"! face).

Courage, Emmet. You're a man in the arena. Good job.

Great episode except for one thing: it was over way too soon.

At the moment there are a few politicians in Australia who 'say' they are prepared to pay the price for their green delusions but when push comes to shove they will fold like they always do to hang on to power at any cost
