It is probably the most encouraging speech I've ever watched regarding our environmental predicament. We could turn things around a lot faster if decision makers would take the time to listen to him.

I love the suggestion to the college president. Great thinking that solves the college president's problem creatively and practically. It's a way to "have your cake and eat it too": provide all your energy for the building harvesting wind at 1/5 the cost of making the building more efficient and less attractive, and keep you high celings and big windows. Kudos to you WM.

Dear Mr. Donough,
I am an architect from Germany visiting the US. By chance I read your interview in Newsweek and feel compelled to write to you - which I will do by mail. Your work is very inspiring. My daughter just graduated as a bachedlor of aplied arts in product design at the Gerrit Reitfeld Academy in Amsterdam. She was very inspired by your work and philosophy, as were her teachers.
Sincerely
Dervisha Schneider

Don't hold your breath guys.
