I'm surprised at how he's made independent observations that parallel my own (such as the problem with most science fiction movies, and that happiness is not the ultimate utopian goal of humanity).
Interesting note: he says we are basically 16 years away (assuming the steady advances in solar tech we've had for the past 20 years continue) from solar power being able to provide 100% of our energy needs.
