NO NUCLEAR? NO GAS? Windmills kill birds. Most places don't get enough sun to use solar. The new light bulbs are full of mercury. I can't wait til these kids realize their cell phones won't work on just solar and they'll be riding a jackass. Let's be realistic--nuclear power is as clean as it comes and coal can be made cleaner. Take a look at Europe's nuclear power--France gets about 75% of their power from nuclear. And we can't switch our cars over night! Something has to be done while new energy sources are being developed. Let's do some drilling now to ease the transition--and for heaven's sake be reasonable! NO COAL? NO NUCLEAR? NO GAS?
