I hope you have some clean burning energy for the first week of the new year as we suffer through the 7days of the next year of global warming. We’ll probably go feed the animals after it has been below freezing for a few days…by that time, people usually aren’t out to visit much so Snow White and I do our duty.

I’m sure it was great to visit with the family also. We missed you but you got a well-deserved break.

Everything has a cost. If we want all these electronic gizmos and conveniences then there will be a price to pay. We can burn coal, gas, logs or build windmills, solar farms and nuclear power plants and each of those things will have a cost and risk associated with it. There is simply no escaping it. I say pay the cost and minimize risk and while we’re at it be thankful and stop whining about it. I’m certainly not giving up my fantastic lifestyle because of a little carbon dioxide. Sorry.

Mr. Kennedy cites the fact that the offshore facility is heavily subsidized as a reason to oppose it. How many subsidized programs has he championed? It’s interesting that he uses government funding as a reason for opposition to this proposal.

Its become a very heated debate thruought the state. Why is it that the U.S. is so far behind the rest of the world to adopt such things?
