It's even worse than that... The promise of clean Natural Gas from fracking is a lie - yes, the gas is relatively clean compared to coal, but the fracking proces is an environmental disaster. Worse, the money being wasted in drilling all those wells and developing the technology would have gone a long way to building a permanent renewable infrastucture. |

But, folks like Pat wouldn't be making as much money if they were investing in alternatives. Short term is the quote of the day. |

We shall see. Time will tell. But, you can remain in the past if you choose. |
