Solari Update

"Making money is art and Wworking is art. And good business is the best art."

Dillon Read and the Aristocracy of Stock Profits

This Thursday evening, I will be speaking with B. Blake Levitt about Smart Grids.

Blake is an award-winning medical and science journalist, a former New York Times writer, and author of "Electromagnetic Fields: A Consumer’s Guide to the Issues and How to Protect Ourselves," for which she won a chapter award of excellence from the American Medical Writers Association. She is also the editor of "Cell Towers."

Blake joined us on The Solari Report in March to discuss electromagnetic fields and the risks posed by the explosion of wireless technologies around us. One topic emerged as both important and urgent - smart grids. Blake agreed to return in April to discuss smart grids - what are they, what will they do, who is promoting them and why and what are some of the associated risks we need to understand and actions we want to consider. We have posted some of her recent pieces on this technology, The Problems With Smart Grids: Dumb and Dangerous and Smart Grids: Update from Blake Levitt.

More at the blog.

On Shunning Goldman

"If I were managing a pension fund, I wouldn’t get within a 50 mile radius of anyone from Goldman Sachs, or their spouses, or their kids, or their dogs." ~ Remaining Nameless (for obvious reasons.) Goldman Sachs in the hot seat! View related posts at Catherine's blog.
