Wayne, I couldn't agree more. I give it folks daily. "What, do you think the market deli makes them eggs? Maybe grows bread and meat on trees out back?". I give it to them.
My heart goes out to that mine fella. He's a necessary evil like the trash guy. Everyone needs him, no one wants him around.
Electrical power is a problem. We all need it, nobody wants a plant near them, especially coal or nuclear. A couple of years ago, a county over some company came in and wanted to put in a coal gasification power plant. If you go to the Dept. of Energy and look it up, coal gasification is closer to nuclear fission than burning raw coal, which doesn't happen. The coal is broken down into 3 components, one being gas to power turbins, a biproduct of hydrogen that could be used those little 4 wheeled Hindenbergs they want us to abandon our pickups for, and I forget the 3rd component, also a usefull biproduct. But it comes from coal, evil coal and thats all that anyone needs to hear. That county held hearings on the proposed plant where folks came in and held up their babies, shaking them and making them cry, yelling "Our babies will be harmed by that evil coal". The county board took a vote banning it, and I'll never forget the board president saying, "I don't know anything about coal gasification, but since it involves coal, its got to be bad". What an idiot. Afterwards, the local news media that ginned up the fearful stories approached the company spokesman and asked what the other local area location was planned since he'd mentioned that they were looking at another area just over the stateline, ans his response was priceless, "Why, so you can run up there and scare the he.. out of them as well? We're not devulging that information at this time".
Yep, everyone wants and needs the product, just not anywhere in sight...like the Kennedy's getting that wind farm banned 60 miles off of the coast of Nantuckett that would've needed binoculars to almost see if tried real, real hard to see it.
