    Are people really that stupid? (No, you don't have to answer that) :rolleyes:

    So, if we're going to include the source of the electricity generation, which I would agree is a valid consideration, why not include ALL the costs of gas? Like poisoning the air, water, and soil. What's that worth?

    Sure, oil is convenient now that we've built the infrastructure, and lotsa people make lotsa money from it, but the machinations and justifications people go through to avoid facing reality is quite incredible.
