Confessions of an Energy Price Forecaster

Natural gas and electricity...
Petroleum...
Food...
Drugs...

Everything costs more, but WHY?

John Tobin's new book, Confessions of an Energy Price Forecaster - A 12-Step Program to Enlightenment (Outskirts Press 2008) gives answers and helps you understand why these prices are rising. WITS show host, Barbara Milbourn, will be interviewing John on Friday, May 1 and you may access it on this blog.

John Tobin is the Executive Director of the Energy LITERACY Project, Inc. This program is attempting to address the public perception of the energy industry by promoting balanced educational and informational programs that are based on the irreversible, interlocking nature of Energy in all of its forms, including conservation and energy efficiency, the role energy plays in fueling the Economy and the impact our choices of energy has on the Environment.

His 43 years of experience includes in addition to the above activities positions with ARCO, Scientific Software Corp., Martin Marietta and Eastman Kodak. He has BS (1964) and MS (1966) degrees from the University of Rochester in Mechanical and Aerospace Sciences. He is a recovering engineer and believes that he is eminently qualified as an energy economist in that he has no academic biases to screw up his views.
