They are not willing to give up pushing practices that pollute the land, the air, and the water. My grandchildren may inherit their folly. I love my grandchildren.

What I liked about Obama was that he will bring the change we need, and that he mentioned "clean" coal as kind of an after thought. I know he may not be the best possible candidate, but he's still better than Mccain. I'll give you that. I think that this is a good idea and that we should do this more often.

I did wonder. I belong to Appalachian Voices, and they've never mentioned any such thing. Thanks for the clarification. During the election, I kept hearing about clean coal. I did wonder.

If we have to dump more $ into making any big switch it should be renewables which in the end would be cheaper, create more jobs, and help end globle warming. What more could anyone ask for?

Sometimes I think we let the best be the enemy of good. Lets hope that renewables will outcompete coal on commercial basis within short!
