Default Ten Bucks a Litre

Not sure how many members watched Dick Smiths Documentary on ABC tonight but I thought it was a pretty fair snapshot of Australia's energy situation

for those who missed it the link is here, it’s just shy of being an hour long
http://www.abc.net.au/iview/#/view/41110

some of the assumptions Dick mentioned to me are a tad questionable such as Petrol hitting 10 dollars a litre which I won’t get into cause most people don’t want a lecture on macro economics and Dick also fails to discuss Hydrogen which seems to be making some big steps in recent years to becoming a viable form of transportation.

One thing I do like in the doco is that Dick brings up Nuclear energy which is something Australia needs to have a informed debate about especially with all the Uranium we have in the back yard and that our pollies are too gutless to make a decision that would be good for the country because they are worried about polls and elections

so AFF members what did you think of the documentary?
