Poor performance

Isn't it funny how poorly our leaders perform?
Perhaps they shouldn't be paid anything.

Scooby's note: what do you think?

What are you talking about? The PBI metrics are looking better than ever for the "for-profit LLC run "science labs"!

PBIs, Baby! It's all that matters and all that NNSA really cares about. BTW, have you noticed that not a single PBI involves science and research? Message heard, NNSA, loud and clear.

Is Chu a Nobel bust?

Energy policy?
Nuclear power resolved?
Weapons complex stabilized?.
Renewable energy lab?
DOE mediocrity eliminated?.
Spent fuel storage resolved?
Gas prices are sky high?
The best small automotive diesels thrive in...Asia, Europe, South America?
Large scale ethanol for auto use?
The LLCs still exist.

Is he trying? White roads? Really? Is he the Mandarin's scientific curio?

Even O'bama tried something.

Is Chu a Nobel bust?

Chu earned his Nobel as a scientist. Bravo. It may or may not be relevant when it comes to leading/coercing/enduring the bureaucracy.

Many of the topics listed are broad policy issues with many non-technical influences. I think Chu is more sincerely interested in, and knowledgeable of, energy policy than any other Secretary until one goes back to Schlesinger. The nation has floundered around on nuclear power, spent fuel, etc. for decades. Chu was suppose to resolve that in two years? Large scale ethanol is as much about agricultural subsidies and trade policy toward Brazil.

He's trying, but D.C. is probably giving him a big headache.

Sorry, all of those topics are his portfolio.

People follow leaders, politicians form consensus.

If he said. "We failed. DOE is useless, it needs to go." and began shutting it down, it would at least begin somethingpositive, and by the way, not hurt the country one bit.
