Second day of the 7th Western Micronesian Chief Executives Summit, there was this guest from the Leonie Renewable Energy company, I believe he's the vice-president and he's name is Bob Deluca or Delebaca, something like that. He spoke after the two oil companies presented (mobil and shell).
Then the renewable and alternative energy companies and advocates followed.
He asked the audience if anyone had problems with substance abuse. Giggles. But no one raised his hands. He said, "I do. I have problems with substance abuse. I drink coffee...i smoke cigarettes....I'm oil-coholic."
He then went on urging everyone not to be dependent on oil. He presented alternative source of power especially that Saipan has a lot of sun. He said right after his presentation he would head down to the beach, drink, bask under the beautiful Saipan sun and "turn into a solar cell."
The morning session of the summit was over and the emcee announced that lunch was sponsored by Exxon Mobil.
I wanted to ask the guy, if he would take that lunch. Oh well....
