Thank God for Science

This is certainly a refreshing breath of air (pun intended) for those of us within Appalachia who have struggled to survive both physically and economically while completely surrounded by the coal mining industry and less than attentive government agencies.

While I don’t mean to sound ungrateful or even thrilled that people are finally getting that coal is not clean I do find it ironic that while we have endured numerous untold horrors to support our National Need for power that our salvation is now dependent upon government officials other than our own who think alternatives are needed to benefit our Nation.

Now if someone could just explain the science behind reasoning to the government officials of the eastern coal mining states within Appalachia who think what our Nation needs is more coal. Maybe what we need is for political candidates to converge upon these states, so we can finally be free of the King Coal Monarchy!
