I believe the best option for energy would be wind power. Why not use all the flat land we have, and create more energy and secure jobs for the future. This is a energy that will never run out.

"The most efficient use of Appalachian land likely merits the discontinuation of MTR coupled with the development of mountain based wind farms. If this occurs, over the next 10 years coal companies could continue to provide the energy required to meet at least 13-14% of US electric demand via wind turbines and deep mining. In addition, if coal companies chose this path as opposed to MTR, 10 years down the road they will be left with close to 1,000,000 acres of forested land suitable for economic development that also supplies 3-4% of US electric demand in perpetuity."

Let's step back a minute In you post #29 you said it will take hundreds to thousands of years to regrow the natural forest, then in your post #30 you say in 10 years we will have 1,000,000 Acres of forest land suitable for economic development. Which is it 1,000 years or 10 years, see even you can't keep up with the false crap you put on here.
