Sad and stupid since we've known for so long that it kills, as Spaw noted. How many hours of light, heat, and hot water, etc. does one dead miner count for? It creeps me out to know the energy we use is at the cost of any lives an I grew up in a house which had one of only two largest in the valley coal furnaces, hopper and all...coal dust everywhere...mom hated it just for the cleaning.

Out here there is no reason for us all not to go solar except cost. I hope this changes and soon.

Sorrow and thoughts shared with all involved,
