Coal Power Vs. Wind Power

Coal power vs. wind power. Which will win?

That happened yesterday in Luling, Texas. Fortunately no one was seriously injured.

I love the smell of a concrete metaphor in the morning…

    Mister, that’s not coal. That’s the original hybrid diesel-electric. A hybrid that has lots of electric torque, can haul a load, and keep running over long distances. And despite being an understood and widely used technology for over half a century; automobile manufacturers can’t figure it out.

    Yeah, diesel not coal.
    But it’s still a good visual of the power density and throw-a-switch reliability of fossil fuel over goofy bird-killing wind turbines.

    Let the stupid green assholes freeze in the dark.

    Leland- can’t figure it out, or don’t want to? Makes me wonder.
