The year was 1979 and the United States was in the middle of an Energy Crisis when Jimmy Carter gave what was to become known as his Malaise Speech.
In his now famous speech, he asked the question “Why have we not been able to get together as a nation to resolve our serious energy problem?”
What President Carter realized, and what I was too young to understand at the time, but have come to realize also, is that we were then, and are now, having a crisis of concision.
