[QUOTE="BrownArmy, post: 1022981, member: 18225"] One of the main reasons Coal isn't doing so well now is the exponential utilization of Natural Gas due to more efficient technologies, i.e. 'fracking'. It's simply cheaper, right now, to go with NG than it is to go with coal. In my area (northeast) they are retrofitting coal-fired power plants to run on NG because of the cost differential. Sooo...do you want to tell all of the recently employed NG workers that they're 'killing coal'? My guess, it wouldn't go very far. [/QUOTE]
