This report isn’t even counting the coal reserves, which can be turned into gas. Stupid not to break the OPEC chains.
parsy, who is amazed they are re-discovering nuclear energy
“progressives” want to destroy the United States.
That sounds personal. How would you like to invest in a small coffeehouse that roasts it’s own coffee? :-)
