    I was very impressed with anthony Pereira's presentation and superior knowledge of the photovoltaic industry.
  • Daryl Montgomery
    The speaker went on interminably. The intellectual content of the first part of the talk was non-existent. No more politics, it is a complete waste of time. At one point I thought if the speaker said 'cool' one more time, I would throw something at him. My impression was that he was used to speaking to junior high school students.
