Well, to start with, you can join up with those of us who have been trying to do the same thing for some time, and have the scientific backing of the Space Solar Power Workshop behind us. Darel Preble and his scientific colleagues have built up a considerable stock of analysis and evidence which ought not to be left out of any discussion on the subject. I incorporated the Space Solar Power Association last year to act as the lobbying affiliate for SSPW. I have approached a number of individuals in the government and outside it, and plan to make a visit to Washington this spring to speak to more. This will not happen in any one person's ad hoc project, but requires educating the public, public officials, and the media to take space solar power seriously. Ultimately, government-supplied funding will be necessary to get space solar power started, as it has been for so many capital-intensive projects over the decades.
If you want to help the cause along, check out the SSPW website, or write to me at mwallach@... We need all the allies we can find.

Hi Joe. Nice to hear from you again.
I should mention that I believe "An Inconvenient Truth" makes Al Gore
look like a kook but it seems to be working for him.
I do not mind being thought kooky but I would not want it to bring harm
to the concept of solar power. So tell me, anyone, on line or off, how
can I present the concept of solar powered satellites in a manner that
will find public acceptance?
