Interesting thread.  A lot of people posted their views.  Having worked for the Southern Company for a couple of decades, it's actually a subject I know a little about.  My former employer liked to keep us educated about trends in the industry. 


Too bad these discusions seem to degenerate into an us vs. them debate.  This isn't the sort of thing where either side "wins".  As soon as either side wins the debate, we all lose.  Both sides are right and both sides are wrong.  Just in different areas.


 Alternative energy sources are great where they are feasible.  They just aren't as economically feasible as some of their proponents would like to think. Just because something is scientifically posible doesn't mean it is economically feasible.  But, as Solomon said, consider the ant.  Over many centuries, the Dutch managed to make half of their country using wind power.
