Another blow to the pebble mine Bristol Bay

Geezer, I'm with you on Global Warming. Just because Al Gore is a liar (like all politicians) doesn't say anything about whether global warming is occurring. But I think you mentioned one commonly held misconception. Petroleum is dirtier than most coal used in the US. Petroleum propelled vehicles are just too inefficient with most of the energy going to produce heat. Electricity from coal is cleaner than a corresponding amount energy from petroleum products. Many anti electric vehicle people think they just shift where the pollution ends up. Does that while lower pollution and greenhouse gases. Plus not dumping boatloads of cash into the Middle East where some of it goes toward terrorism and armies of our enemies.
