hostage to fossil fuels!! I hope they start going full bore into green energy as a result of this very difficult lesson in control by the oil/gas companies. After we've seen what russia does with nuclear power plants, I'm also hopeful we get away from those, as well. They seem to be tweeked into being weapons of mass deadly pollution.
