Take it easy Viking, don't burn my crops and pillage my town.
what we're living is unsustainable, I just wonder if there's any exit strategy, or just chaos and higher prices til the end of time.

That's a fair interpretation. I'm just frustrated that the cost of a big screen TV drops every year, but Electricity always goes up.
The single most important invention in history and they can't figure it out?
I guess we just need to wait for the new world order....

I'm curious-- I love the idea of solar, my dad installed a solar powered air conditioner in the 80's (worked-- not great, but was like magic).
I'm curious about the hard data here in Maine-- I'd like to know if it was worth it for you.

We're living through dramatic inflation, so I suppose that just opens an new can of worms, but that's a reasoned response-- Is there any way to bring down the cost of electricity without a new world order?

I was born and raised here.
In LA there are car alarms and homeless living next to $40 million buildings.
I moved back home in '04, I haven't taken the keys out of my car since.

I'm not sure your qualifications, but suppose I am deranged, we need KW and as many as we can get our hands on.
It seems like wind and solar are theoretically good, but don't bring the price down.

It's good for FUD.
And it works. Or you just ignore this stuff. Maybe that's best.

Maine Yankee was built when it was legal to sell Ford Pintos from the factory, and still no losses.
They've made tremendous strides in security since then. I don't see the same threat you do.

Number of deaths in the USA in 70 years: 0
Number of deaths EVERY YEAR globally from oil: 3,000,000
You have to pick your disasters, right?

We harness the environment at a VERY low cost with oil. The future needs a better answer than it's too expensive.

Safe is objectively true. Ugly is subjective I suppose, but I used to look at green mountains, now I look at windmills.
Is that what you prefer personally?

It's partly a test. I developed a system to catch trolls online.
It's a metric system of intent and perception.
Take a look:

Take a look through the comments, there are rational responses that align with what you say is misinformation. Likely the information is perfectly correct, but infers that correlation is causation without more complex analysis.
If you can find enough coincidental causes, you have a viable theory.
