Howdy Nick and Jed,
After some 30 years our local ole smokey LCRA Fayette county coal fired
power plant is installing scrubbers and CO2 controls. I am painfully aware
of the coal problems. Haven't heard about the "greening earth society"..are
they listed as another non profit ( meaning gimme da money) like the genuine
greenies?
Looking at the wind energy business, does it track that a business that is
so heavily subsidized as wind power plus the free advertizing by a host of
greenie folks, shouldn't they be making a profit?
Yet, Clipper Wind Power PLC claims to have the technology lead with their
awards.. look at their stock performance ( CRPWF).
Reviewing their PDF brochure on features,study the litany of problems they
"overcome". They seem to have the answer to every problem encountered with
these mills. Perhaps the problems with downtime and maintenance have
mysteriously disappeared.
More power to 'em. I hope they succeed.... but.. anything touted a winner
should show some evidence .. like money in the bank.
Specially if the tax payer is supporting them. JP Morgan Chase just aired an
ad showing they have invested 3 billion in wind energy if they can be
believed.

It is from the "Greening Earth Society" -- the U.S. coal lobby that
favors global warming. (I kid you not.) You might call that "black"
as in coal but they prefer to call themselves green.
R C Macaulay apparently buys whatever nonsense the coal lobby cooks
up, and he does not believe in cross checking with reliable sources.
