  Children are in danger

  And one more thing Mr. Gore.  Massey Energy also maintains a coal slurry impoundment in West Virginia, just upstream of a school.  If that impoundment should fail, and they have failed before, hundreds of children will be killed.  Don Blankenship and Joe Machin care about nothing but enriching themselves.  This has to stop.

  Chill

  Obviously the trend to use less electricity is due to cfl lights, a switch to energy-efficient appliances,and a need to reduce household expenses due to higher gasoline and food prices.  The utility companies should just relax.  Consumption will climb sharply when PHEV's become available in a year or two.  On Big drop in U.S. electricity consumption confounds utilities posted 1 year ago 14 Responses

  Why not do it now?

  Absurd!  We should be working to get off of fossil fuels within 4 years.  We need to put engineers and scientists in charge, instead of financial managers and polliticians, the one's who've already screwed things up.

  What about the batteries?

  Someone needs to tell BMW NOT to lease the batteries.  That would be a deal-breaker for me. It would be too easy to kill the car, reminicent of what happened with the EV1. On Electric Mini Cooper coming to the U.S. posted 1 year, 1 month ago 3 Responses
