Because I understand the value of commonsense! The energy contained in the molicules of ALL the alternative alternatives... Does not even begin to approach the energy contained in petroleum products!
The human race cannot survive long enough to change that on this planet!!! All the alternatives have already been totally checked out and that's the end of it till all you true believers finally wake up to that one simple fact!!!
It's all such an unbelievable waste of time and mental energy! We simply need nuclear to save petroleum from being used, no wasted, in non-transport endeavors!!! But you can keep giving everyone a headache and wasting money and all you'll do is what the GovernMental EnvironMentalist are doing... And that is making everything cost more, for no good reason!!! I will never stop protesting that!!! Because it's stupid!!!
That second sentence should have read... "Does not even begin to compare to the energy contained in the molecules of petroleum products!"
That's true only if you exclude nuclear power from your definition of "alternative alternatives." There's more energy in an ounce or uranium than in a barrel of oil.
