February 25, 2008
Effective February 25, I am ending my affiliation with the Institute for Energy Research. While I support IER’s efforts to promote a free-market approach to energy policy, my position as a fellow with the think tank which began in October 2007, was diverting attention away from my main goal, which is to have an open and honest discussion of global and domestic energy issues. This change is not due to philosophical differences. Instead it is due to my desire to remain independent.
