Boy, that's a shitload of coal spewing toxins and CO2 into the air. TheWraith Apr 2012 #1
And yet they continue to decrease overall emissions. kristopher Apr 2012 #2

If you are including all the data.. Dead_Parrot Apr 2012 #5
No... they aren't. FBaggins Apr 2012 #7
Out of interest, kris... Dead_Parrot Apr 2012 #8
The government and the utilities that push nuclear and coal kristopher Apr 2012 #10
Yes kris. That's why I asked. Dead_Parrot Apr 2012 #11
They have split personalities of course. FBaggins Apr 2012 #13
Noticed you ran from this same discussion at your thread on the same topic kristopher Apr 2012 #17
How odd... you misspelled "imagined" as "noticed". FBaggins Apr 2012 #18
What's the specific *market* mechanism by which nuclear shuts down coal? kristopher Apr 2012 #19
In the real world, ALMOST ALL power is subsidized in some way or another. XemaSab Apr 2012 #20
Poor xemasab... kristopher Apr 2012 #21

Still waiting. Either provide specifics or retract your insinuation. kristopher Apr 2012 #30
Kris, you've said you're an independant analyst Dead_Parrot Apr 2012 #31
Two things: XemaSab Apr 2012 #36
What consulting company? kristopher Apr 2012 #37
Here's the deal: XemaSab Apr 2012 #38
Bullpucky. You've been party to stalking me off of DU. kristopher Apr 2012 #39
You said you weren't paid. joshcryer Apr 2012 #40
How do you arrive at that logic? kristopher Apr 2012 #42
OK, I'm confused Dead_Parrot Apr 2012 #48
Finally you are listening, but you still aren't quite getting it. kristopher Apr 2012 #50

Who said it is a luxury? kristopher Apr 2012 #54

Poor Xemasab... What's the specific *market* mechanism by which nuclear shuts down coal? kristopher Apr 2012 #56
You can frame it however you want for yourself GliderGuider Apr 2012 #57
That perception by you and yours developed in direct proportion kristopher Apr 2012 #58
Oh, my perception goes back a lot further than that. GliderGuider Apr 2012 #59
"imperiously ordering"? kristopher Apr 2012 #60
The issue isn't whether we were right or wrong GliderGuider Apr 2012 #61
Turnabout is fair play XemaSab Apr 2012 #41
Again... kristopher Apr 2012 #43
So you think I am influenced by dark motives? XemaSab Apr 2012 #44
An business license that hasn't been used in 6 years doesn't turn up on a routine google search. kristopher Apr 2012 #45
It shows up on the special google XemaSab Apr 2012 #46
Oh, wait, sorry XemaSab Apr 2012 #47
It's so cute that you think EITHER has anything to do with market forces. FBaggins Apr 2012 #49
You really haven't got a clue and are not interested in learning. kristopher Apr 2012 #51
At least there is an increase in storage Yo_Mama Apr 2012 #6
Pity they didn't give capacity figures, though... nt Dead_Parrot Apr 2012 #9
Umm ... did you mean a different type of "capacity"? Nihil Apr 2012 #12
Sorry, I meant as in MWh Dead_Parrot Apr 2012 #14
OK - that makes sense. Nihil Apr 2012 #15
The fucking coal will be economically unextractable by 2035. joshcryer Apr 2012 #25
