I'm glad you enjoyed my post. Not knowing that natural gas is methane doesn't mean I haven't done more reading than most people on these threads on climate change, alternatives, and solutions. How many times have you guys posted that the globe is not warming, when we have records going back 150 years that shows a pretty remarkable increase in temperature. I'd say that's a bigger piece of ignorance than not knowing natural gas is synonymous with methane. Again, this is the problem with you guys and with the Bush Jr mentality. None of you ever admit when you are wrong or when you make a mistake. As such, you will continue to "stay the course" forever, because admitting you were wrong is an impossibility for you. The thing is, in this debate we're having, I have time on my side. Every year that goes by, alternative energy technology improves and makes it more realistic. So every year that you guys continue to dig yourselves into the whole of denying that the world is moving towards alternative energy and denying that it will be profitable and commercially viable, is another year in which you are looking less prescient. So let's continue this debate. 2-3 years from now or even if it is 3-5 years from now, when the whole world recognizes that solar and other alternative energy sources have surpassed grid-parity, then let me hear how bad of an idea it is then. You guys never learn.
