- @GPACEinKS: Coal plants facing more and more opposition: http://bit.ly/KamSR 10/5/2009 11:37 AM
[editor's note: There have been no new orders for nuclear power plants since 1975. No new hydro power. Now we're killing coal. How will our economy work when we are dependent on unreliable, but renewable, power? As a young girl, my mom's family could only listen to the radio when there was enough wind. Is that what we want for our economy?] - @manspeaker: Love that the KS conservatives are monitoring our tweets and sharing them on there blogs. #theydontgetit 10/5/2009 12:02 PM [editor's note: But many are still not on Twitter! Tweets can be like mini-news stories. They're being shared on blogs because not everyone "gets" Twitter.]
