Let's Talk About Conservation__________________________________________________

	The subject of conservation as an energy "source" has been brought up.
I think this subject merits its own discussion rather than remain as an off-
shoot of the nuclear power discussion.
	Why is it that conservation is not taken seriously?  I, of course, have
my own opinion.  We live in a patriarchical culture, one where the "masculine"
ideal is more valued than the "feminine" ideal.  This culture's particular
"masculine" ideal involves an *active* stance towards problem solving and a
*linear* method of attacking problems.
	Conservation, on the other hand, is a *cooperative* element of a *hol-
istic* approach to the problem.
	Any thoughts?  I hope so.
