You have that backwards. Coal is the predominant fuel followed by gas and then nuclear.

Sure, but YOU and YOU ALONE decide to spend your money on what you think is "cool".

It's when you force OTHER people to spend THEIR money on your whims that it becomes immoral.

No one said they were going to force you to buy anything here.

Its like some had their manhood challenged. Its cool. Turning wind into electricity is pretty cool and there is absolutely nothing wrong with that.

If like the cold water it causes you shrinkage well....

Its too bad that you argue against pretty cool inventions because you are scared of the possibilities of "lib" arguments you don't like.

Just above you called them fantasies. They actually are real.

Or maybe yours was just an irrelevant general rant?

What "fantasies" did I speak of?

Be specific and use quotes.
