In response to my post Hard To Get Too Ruffled about Renewable Energy Nay-Sayers,  a reader notes:  Dear Mr. Shields, renewable energy is here to stay, and people are  starting to accept it.

Thanks for the note.  Yep, Mahatma Gandhi reminds us: “First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win.”  We’re getting close to a happy ending here.
