A quick note to congratulate the Seattle winners and finalists in the third annual BetterBricks Awards.

BetterBricks held its third annual awards ceremony here in Seattle this morning. I would guess that about 175 people attended the breakfast ceremony.

Keynote speaker Nancy Floyd of Nth Power gave a fascinating presentation about how the investment community views energy efficiency. Her main message was that the influx of equity capital will continue to grow and to change the new energy sector. She also noted that the next generation is in school now becoming educated and motivated to deal with the energy problem and, while BetterBricks has launched a valuable program, she looks forward to seeing what the next generation can do.
