 Patent Attorney
Office River-Vu
My law firm, Young & Thompson, moved into nice new offices at the northern edge of Old Town Alexandria, Virginia. Somehow I was given a prestigious (but not corner) office with a view of the Potomac river. Although you can barely see it, the Alexandria boathouse is at the end of Madison Street, and one can see the rowing team practice in the late afternoon.
The Goozner
Solar Review arises from my
long standing interest in all
forms of alternative energy. This not only includes solar
energy,
but all kinds of energy that are non-carbon based. Above,
you
see me in front of the geothermal project at the University of Aachen
(Germany). The geothermal energy is obtained by sinking a
shaft
about 1km straight into the ground, and exploiting the temperature
gradient between the abyss and the surface. This shaft will
supply most of the energy used by the University.

GOOZNER'S PATENTS
Before I became a patent attorney, I worked in the alternative
energy and environmental fields as a scientist and engineer.
I also was an inventor on several patents, including:
SOLAR COOKER PROJECT
All alternative
energy
is not necessarily high tech. Even low tech
solutions may
have a great impact on people's lives.
For example, you may wish to consider the Solar Cooker Project, which aids Darfur refugees. |
