Diesel can be made from COAL, and used to be (Kerosene used to be called Coal Oil). We have more COAL than anything else, and enough to make our diesel economy purr!....I cannot understand why the Coal mining industry and the MINING UNIONS are not beating down the doors of every Congressman trying to get this done!..............

A large deposit of low sulfur coal is in thousand of acres north of the Grand Canyon in an area that Clinton declared protected Federal land back when he was president.

Coincidently, his friends in Indonesia have a large amount of it also, and soon after he put ours off limits, his friends were able to up their exports to us tremendously.

I'm sure that lined Clinton's pockets quite well!

Environmentalist are killing every new coal fired generating plant. They are the enemy of America

They also hate all coal conversion plans. Converting coal to diesel produces too much CO2

I despise these people so much
