The department of energy is just one of numerous governmental agencies
that have long ago out lived their usefulness. That's assuming they
served a purpose to begin with. The market is more than capable of
determining what characteristics are desirable for a given product.

Don't even get me started on how useful the EPA, Dept of Labor, Dept
of education and Dept of HUD are. Not to mention the VA. Now you
really got me ****ed off!

Thanks, Oren!

Note that the DOE Secretary is/has negotiated the Iran nuke deal, if
that makes you feel better.

Dr. Ernest Moniz - Secretary of Energy needs a hair cut.
