In the past month, Energy Secretary Chu and now President Obama have addressed DOE labs. In both cases, the address was announced the morning it happened, essentially at the last minute and out of the e-mail time window of nearly every user I know physically located at SLAC. As a result, I’ve missed both occasions. If anybody saw Obama’s address today and knows if it was posted online, or can report the relevant substance of the address, I’d appreciate it!

If this is what you are referring to, I don’t think you missed much.
Hey Steve,
Un/Fortunately you didn’t miss much. Obama missed an opportunity with this one. Still, you can read his remarks starting under the Obama picture here:
