Castle Energy Offers Solar Power On The East Coast
It’s always a thrill when people I’ve known since my childhood grasp the opportunities that renewables represent. When my brother Geoff and I were teenagers, we had a fine friend, JR Castle (James Rutherford, if I’m not mistaken), who came from a very dignified family. Though JR himself was something of a “wild man” at the time, he always had a smile of his face, and impressed me as someone who was headed somewhere.
40 years later, I learned that JR is a managing partner at Castle Energy LLC, which has produced some terrific results in the installation of solar.
Keep up the good work, my friend. We had some fun back then, didn’t we?
Though I agree with very few of conservative columnist George Will’s conclusions, I find him to be one of the most impressive intellectuals in our world today. And occasionally, he will let out with something that really resonates with me, like the fallacy of predicting that the future will be a continuation of the past. As he points out, “The future always looks like the past – right up to the point it looks like something different.”
I was sitting at the train station, writing blog posts, and I happened to overhear one side of a cell phone conversation of the guy sitting next to me, who, before the phone rang, was working on his laptop as well. Apparently, the young son of a close friend or relative had hit his head on a kitchen counter and needed to be taken to the hospital. I couldn’t help notice how calm, helpful, and encouraging the man next to me was in his approach.
Whenever possible, I like to take the train as opposed to renting a car. It’s normally less expensive, it’s more sustainable, and affords me the opportunity to read, write, and talk to people.
