Reply #8: Uh, gee Wally, that's a might big jump you made! [View All]

How did you get from my being against revitalizing the nuclear industry to being in favor of coal mines? I said nothing about coal, gas, nor anything else for that matter, other than expressing my opinion that we shouldn't go back in for nuclear power, and that the mining process is simply one more reason we shouldn't.

But then you have to go and make this stunning leap of logic. . .right off a cliff, thinking that somehow I am for coal power.:wtf:

If you must know, I'm not for goal, gas, nor nuclear power. Quite frankly I think we should go for completely renewable, clean, alternative energy sources, and this country has the means and methods to fill our energy needs using only renewable resources. Just one example is wind power. Do you realize that there is enough harvestable wind resources in just three states, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Texas to meet all of the US's electrical needs through the year 2030? Just three states will fulfill all of our electrical needs. No need for coal, oil, gas or nuke electrical plants, what a novel concept. Combine this with things like solar, biodiesel, ethanol, etc and damn, the US has an enviromentally friendly, sane and safe energy plan. What a novel concept.

Now do you get where I'm coming from?
