   The reality is that there's more energy locked up in coal, here   
   in the United States, than the nations with the #1 and #2 "Proven"   
   oil reserved.   
      
   That's massive. AND THEN we take into account that by "Proven oil   
   reserves" they mean bullshit. They count bitumen -- tar -- as "oil"   
   in Venezuela and Canada even though it takes a poop ton more energy   
   just to collect it, and a poop ton more to refine it so it's a long,   
   Long, LONG ways from a 1-to-1 conversion...   
      
   Humanity is not going to survive on wind and solar. After all these   
   years and trillions in investments, wind and solar haven't even been   
   able to cover enough of our energy needs to eliminate any GROWTH in   
   fossil fuels, let alone a cut.   
      
   We need coal.   
      
   Does it suck? Yes it does. It's stuffed silly with toxins and emits   
   nearly as much CO2 as wood -- which is certified "Envirtonmentally   
   friends -- but we need it.   
      
   And 100% of the coal that the western world has eliminated from   
   use and WAY MORE THAN MADE UP FOR by China, which easily burns more   
   coal than the entire rest of the world combined.   
      
   Say, remember when you bed wetters were going off about GLOBAL   
   warming? How is it that the massive increase in emissions in places   
   like China and India, but especially China, are okay?   
      
   Why does coal burned HERE create a problem but coal burned everywhere   
   else is fine?   
      
   Same with natural gas!  You retards got it into your warped excuses   
   for a brain that our cleanest fuel is somehoe dirty and we have to stop   
   using it. Yet we export BILLION of cubic feet of natural gas every day,   
   with no slowing down, and that's okay...   
      
   "It's only bad when Americans reap the benefits of their own natural   
   resource. It's okay if Europe sucks us dry though."   
      
   Oo! I almost forgot:  Fuck you!
