I had my political differences with Dick Cheney, but in person I found him warm, funny, a gracious host and surprisingly knowledgeable about music. Seeing The Jesus Lizard with him in 2009 was a blast, and he didn't hesitate to wade into the pit despite a few sidelong glances.

Top climate priorities:
1. Electrify everything. Yes even that.
2. Stop burning anything for energy. Seriously.
3. Build and install as much solar PV and batteries as you have money for using the latest technology.
