If wind power to generate as much power per acre as nuclear plants. Then it wouldn't be silly.

Every acre is sacred?

Coal-burning plants are silly.

Hydro-electric plants are silly.

Fission plants are silly; they don't generate as much as fusion plants.

I dunno, maybe it's just me. But, that measure sure seems silly.

Every acre isn't sacred, but efficiency is.

At this juncture yes coal-burning plants are silly, they're inefficient and highly poluting.

Since you wouldn't be able to put a nuclear plant where a hydro-plant is, and since they serve other purposes (making lakes) hydro are OK.

It is just you, there's never anything silly about efficiency.
