What will replace it and how will the poor people of Kentucky afford high energy bills when you allget your way and wipe out coal? I hear all these grand judgments but no solutions. Typical.

One could write a book about all of this stuff. Unfortunately one already exists, Ellison's _Kentucky's Domain of Greed, Power, and Corruption_, but it's horribly written, constructed with facile logic, and misguided. Someday, I'll do better, in some capacity. I think blogging is a start. I also agree that organizations like KFTC should load their arsenal with uneasy collaborations like the one you've just described. The problem is that not much of this will change as long as people continue to idolize college basketball. Duffman…all excellent points! One could write a book about all of this stuff.

if these people are “friends of coal” and “friends of uk” do they do the friendly thing and give the coal that UK uses (the big pile near Kennedy’s and the PPD building) to UK for free??
