We must conserve it for these purposes. The remaining oil has irreplaceable applications and must be allocated for them. Coal exploitation is still at the primitive, ‘You burn it for heat’ stage, Come on, biology, chemistry and physics, modernize this wonder-fuel into something we can use safely! Wind is about to be revealed to the American people by the last great energy prophet, T. Boone Pickens. Using his genius, we will be able to adapt to using much less oil in a very comfortable manner. The South Western U.S. is currently being bought up by those ‘in the know’ financial people, and solar power is a modern reality, and our power grids are growing to accommodate this huge free resource. Good news for us! Bad news for the oil barons! We will kick their asses good, they will never hi-jack another prosperous American economy. We don’t need to fight their (The Saudis) dirty Suni war either. We can survive very well on the oil we pump from our own lands. We have seen the light, we have developed the technology and we are about to elect the government that will, in spite of the oil barons lobby, implement an America free from parasite oil nations.

As a taxpayer, I don’t mind if more budgets are allocated towards building new plants that harvest this energy source. It’s time that someone acts before it’s too late.

Those wacky Germans are planning to shut down nuclear plants for wind farms. I read about that in an article titled "Build Wind, Drop Nuclear? Germany Loses its Mind!" at <a href="http://economicefficiency.blogspot.com/2008/07/build-wind-drop-nuclear-germany-loses.html" rel="nofollow">http://economicefficiency.blogspot.com/2008/07/bu...</a> Coal and nuclear provide base loads and are dependable, while solar and wind can not provide base loads continuously. I personally want more nuclear!! Hey, good luck with that. Those wacky Germans are planning to shut down nuclear plants for wind farms.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! 200 MW of solar will surely replace to coal fired power plants. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
