[QUOTE="Migrator Man, post: 295728, member: 2369"] There are decades of it buried that could prob just dig up. [COLOR="silver"][SIZE=1]- - - Updated - - -[/SIZE][/COLOR] I blame Scott Hennen..... He is a sellout that will take anyone’s side as long as they pay him. He has been propping up wind and ethanol as this great thing but the impact to coal cannot be denied. It’s funny how he wrangles around issues around natural gas, wind, ethanol and coal all which advertise on his show. With coal gone some of the most efficient ethanol will go into the red. [COLOR="silver"][SIZE=1]- - - Updated - - -[/SIZE][/COLOR] Yes cheap natural gas has allowed this transition to happen but it is the push of green energy to replace coal with wind that has made natural gas peaking plants necessary.
