The plant is burning very low sulfur coal from Wyoming. There is a constant flow of inbound trains to keep the plant going. They keep enough "spare" coal on the ground to cover supply disruptions. I looked over my photos and didn't have any showing the ammonia tanks with the windsock on top. The small tank farm is at ground level and was obscured by the line of cars on the maintenance spurs.

The scalar EM stuff makes you sit up and take notice. Given the suggested capability to set up an anti-ballistic missile shield, it gives one pause to consider why the U.S. didn't put up much of a fight over the ABM treaties around 1972. Perhaps we mastered the technology and no longer viewed the ABM restrictions as a problem. I hope so.

I hope so too. The element of surprise has always been a major tactic in battle. I think the jihadis don't realize how we talk softly but always carry a very, very big stick.
