How is GMU conservative? How does Yale compare? And Harvard?

It would probably smart for all of to figure all the groups are behind what political parties, positions, websites, newspapers, book publishers, etc are...

But I was really curious about the above question. Thought you would know.

Hi John,
I think what is often overlooked is the fact that electricity saves many lives. Having electric service is a net plus...not a negative.

And folks want their power cheap. Cleaning up old power plants is very very expensive. Building new cleaner plants is quite expensive now and about to become more so as we pump the price of natural gas up.

Everyone is afraid of nuclear plants.

The problem is much more complicated than a dirty chimney.

You can't take gobs of money from polluting industries and then turn around, with a straight face, and tell us that the best science says that pollution is good for us.


Why not? You have Scientists taking gobs of money to do "Environmental studies," from the Gov and Foundations, knowing they will never get another dime if it doesn't come out the "Green" way. Grow up, John.
