  DCMN no evidence of that. Just false rhetoric.

  And no evidence that rates won't go up? Maybe the Sierra Club will cover any increase that happens as a result of their suit? Time for another nuke plant.

  What? Why cant we be like china and have unbreathable air? of course the increased costs of medical treatments are never figured in by the nameless regurgitating parrots of the right, only later when something goes wrong are they the biggest whiners. Travel like I have to Beijing and see why selling breathing mask is a money making business- of course there are days when it is damn hard to see very far.

  may a hog farm be built by your house nameless and nva4.

  After the fall of the wall, eastern europe was a cesspool of dangerous waste, and with today's cuddling up to the commie russians, you can see why the right thinks like they do.

  Perhaps the whiners can request more arsenic in their water to show science means nothing to them.

  You won't care about your rates when you can't breathe or are in the hospital with cancer from the pollution.

  Once again, the environmentally ill people are using the legal system to force everyone to expend more of their income on energy, which will adversely affect poor people, because the poor must expend a greater percentage their income on energy. So the end results are that the environmental zealot elitists, believing they are wiser than us commoners, will destroy energy production capabilities with no scientific basis, to pursue their self emulating goals of achievement.

  Drink deep, or taste not the Pierian spring:
  There shallow draughts intoxicate the brain,
  And drinking largely sobers us again."

  If you don't believe these people are ill, read the caption under the photo above: "The smokestack (right) at the coal-fired White Bluff power plant near Redfield sends up a column of smoke as steam rises from the plant’s cooling towers in this 2009 photo."

  They are trying to say "steam" is smoke. They don't think real good!

  MB actually yes, solar has been dropping in price every year, with only nuclear and natural gas lower. The more projects that come online, the cheaper the cost to manufacture the components. Do some research.

  RBear.........of course rates will go up because wind/solar is more expensive.

  If coal/natural gas were more expensive Entergy would have already shut them down.
