One of the most frightening things about our current political class is their scientific illiteracy. You can’t have reliable energy grids that die when the sun goes down or the wind quits blowing. And no, believe it or not, there currently is no really efficient cost effective way to store electricity. That day may come but it isn’t here now.

I wish every “green” political hack like Al Gore would be forcibly relocated to a camp in Alaska that depended solely upon solar and wind power for their essential power. After one winter we wouldn’t have to worry about them anymore–they would be dead.

Better them than us.
