..which is what it could likely end up being for many
in that area in the future, cold.

If New York wants to shut down Indian Point, then they shouldn’t gripe when they have to freeze in the dark or pay huge amounts of money for power from Canada.
Okay, shut it down. Let the liberals enjoy the dark for a while. "It's like, totally back to nature, man."
Well heck, let’s build some greenhouse gas spewing power plants. If combustion free ain’t green enough then let’s shut off the lights. That is what it is coming to. Rationed electricity. You will be allowed so much and no more. The technology is already available through smart metered devices. Forced conservation.
I like the way you think.
I like the way you think too. Perhaps I’m also bipolar.
Let Albany freeze in the dark
And they should get NO Federal Funding to shut down the core.
Fine. Freeze, if you please.
How then, in Heaven's name, will the clowns at OCC Choppers be able to finish another motorcycle? This'll put the Teutels out of business. Discovery Channel will have to go back to shows featuring that annoying a$$hat Jesse James.
efficient energy alert.
lets go back to living in caves with lighting by moonlight!! save the mother earth gaia /sarc>
I don’t live in NY, so am not familiar with the efficiency of this plant. Anyone from NY want to fill us in?
No nukes, no clean coal, not enough gas to supply the new plants *and* new customers, no drilling off the coasts or in newly designated interior lands.
Yup. Democrats sure have comprehensive energy plan.
What a bunch of dumbasses. Not them, their constituents.
Are they insane? That plant provides a constant what, 2300 megawatts of power? Are they going to pull that out of their butts instead? Or buy some more oil from Venezuela or Saudi Arabia? Or fire up some more 19th century coal technology (because mercury is just sooo good for the environment and human health)? Perhaps “compensate” for the loss with, say, wind turbines with 1/500th the power output? Rolling brownouts?
All of that is far too generous. The moronic anti-nuclear luddites probably have no plan or concept of a problem with their scheme at all.

More like Nightfall, by Ray Bradbury, iirc.
Especially to NYC.
Then gov. Pataki wanted to install something like 20 NG powered mini emergency generator sites around the NYC for future "disasters".
The NIMBY crowd won.
I have no sympathy for those morons.
