My question is how do we take action? Or, should we just wait for the good and bright peoople in government (there are a great many of them )to do their jobs?
Dealing with any government is the same as dealing with committees; if anything gets done it takes forever and will probably be wrong anyway. Take the initiative and go get it done. Since oil shale and tar sand are a huge investment of time and money, invest in the companies that have a good shot at getting it to market.
Oh yeah, after you've gotten whatever it is successfully completed, someone else will try to take the credit.
