Dear Editor…

We are a Nation – indeed a “world” in need of energy. I have a suggestion (given my advanced experience and exposure to “Hot Air Technology” systems (HATs)) that will reduce our energy dependence on foreign oil – allow me to share this new technology with you.

We need to place an IHARS (invisible hot-air recovery system) over select locations – especially: state capitals, republican and democratic conventions and campaign-stomps, and without doubt Washington D.C… If we could tap into the hot-air energy released by political rhetoric, we could power 777 cities the size of Atlanta each and every day. Yes – it’s a fact - there is that much hot-air in political arrogance and apathetic party-politic.

Take for example the results of current “political confusion”: according to the team managing West Point Lake water levels - “the Flint River is low, we are experiencing drought in the southern control areas and we are preparing for the Spring floods — that is why we have taken West Point Lake from 634.5 feet to the current 629 level” Sigh – and we still have months of this nonsense to go.
