How Will You Be Travelling to the Conference?

A quick hello - I will be contributing to help cover the Local Solutions to the Energy Dilemma Conference. I am excited to post, after hanging out in the blogroll and lurking since shortly after the inception of the site. I look forward to bringing you an additional perspective of the conference and speakers.

The reason for the pre-conference post follows:

I announced that I was travelling to the conference on my personal blog a couple of weeks ago, and was promptly called-out by one of my readers.

I wonder how many people will drive 200 miles there in an SUV.

So, I promptly shelved the plans to drive the baloghmobile down there, and will be taking Amtrak tomorrow afternoon. I figured that it might be a good time to remind others to reconsider their transportation choice tomorrow if involves driving into the NY/NJ area. New York has an abundance of public transportation options.

Looking forward to what looks to be a great conference
