Found my way to San Jose for the American Petroleum Institute/Newsweek dialog series on energy. Waiting in the lobby of the beautiful Sheraton Palo Alto for transportation to the event at Stanford. Haven’t met any other bloggers yet but I know they’re here somewhere. We’ll sniff each other out, I’m sure.

By the way, I rarely fly United Airlines but I gotta say those people are NICE. When I checked in, the lady offered to move me from a middle seat to an aisle or window and there was literally a group hug between a boarding agent and a group of older ladies. Love it.

Now I’m here at beautiful Stanford University and the Newsweek/API sponsored discussion: Energy’s Future is in Technology: Innovation in Energy Supply, Energy Efficiency and Alternative/Renewable Energy has just begun.

Moderator: David Jefferson, Senior Editor, Business and Technology, Newsweek

On the panel: Paul Siegele, Vice President, Strategic Planning, Chevron
Jackalyne Pfannenstiel, Chair, California Energy Commission
Trae Vassallo, Partner, Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers
Andrew Murr, Los Angeles Bureau Chief, Newsweek
David Victor, Professor and Senior Fellow at the Woods Institute for the
Environment, Stanford University

Topic: Englighten us on American’s emergent position on renewable energy. Promote energy literacy.

Small group of people, quite intimate. Video set up so I hope to get some video clips later…also a photo
