Never accuse liberals of irony.

Did they buy carbon credits for the trip?

There's a C&W music vid with one. Seemed like a lot of fun. At least for ~4min vid, or whatever it was.

One might also say "alcohol fueled".

New York State is about to experience a financial disaster because outside of Wall Street, the state is falling into financial dire straits. If Gov. Cuomo had allowed “fracking,” upper New York State would be economically booming right now building and maintaining a natural gas production and distribution infrastructure; that also means the state will also be far less dependent on burning far more more polluting heating oil to heat homes and buildings.

Hoover Dam works because they had a narrow Channel between high canyon walls to build between and accumulate a high water head. Same with Glen Canyon dam upstream. Neither the Mississippi nor the Ohio has any terrain remotely like it, so a dam on either would be a small marginal affair, and not worth the disruption of freight traffic.

You are thinking about it incorrectly. You don't put a damn in the middle of the river like Hoover. LOL. The damns go in tributaries and feeder rivers. There are over 700 damns along the Mississippi today. Many of them already produce electricity. But the environmental wackos have the "sky is falling" disease when any technology starts to show promise.

I am all for "fossil fuels first". It's proven and efficient and our infrastructure supports it. In fact, I'd like to see about 20 nuclear power plants built in the country. That is the most efficient power we can get. The point I was making is that the Erff luvers who drone on about 100% renewable don't want an abundance of energy. Hydro power is the best we can do that fits their stated agenda. But they have killed that when the technology started to get in a place to make it more viable in places other than Hoover or Niagara.

LOL. You guys need to do some googling on hydro-electric power. See my previous post.

I was using it as an example, to prove the liberals don’t want 100% renewable energy. The most efficient (in most cases) form of “renewable” energy, is hydroelectric. And the thing that makes it possible for it to be efficient is 1.) technology and 2.) water will continue to flow day or night and regardless of the weather. It can be measured and predicted for capacity. So it can be planned not hypothesized.

Hell, fossil fuels are renewable in that we keep finding more and more “new” sources and reserves of it as technology advances. I am for nuclear power plants.
