I was going to say, coal remains around 1/3 of our electric generation worldwide (as of 2022): https://www.statista.com/statistics/269811/world-electricity-production-by-energy-source/

Coal can't be reused, created, or otherwise obtained outside of mining. Until we remove our dependency on coal, mining will continue.

Bold of you to assume he had a soul.

I've heard that before but really wonder if it's true. My last encounter with (I believe Mormons though it's been a LOT of years ago) was while we were eating dinner. The front door was open with the glass storm door closed. They came to the door, knocked, then stared at us while we were eating dinner as a family. We stared back and they proceeded to knock another 3 times before leaving. I mean, regardless of what you are at the door for that's just rude as fuck so how would they expect a nice response?!

Do you remember what it's called? I should add it to my watch list.

For me it's anyone that comes to my doorstep trying to sell something (including religion). To get to that point you have to walk past TWO "no soliciting" signs. That makes the person blind, incompetent, or both.

I was in Deadwood SD this summer, I'll have to check out the series. Thanks for the suggestion!

Usually around 74F in the summer but I'll bump it if the temps outside hit the mid 90s. 64 in the winter, I like it cold. I run a portable AC in the master bedroom during the summer while we sleep. Bit of a story there.

It's probably an unpopular opinion but I'm going to say it anyway. Trump needs brought to justice and this country needs a "come to jesus moment." As shitty as it sounds, I don't see a way forward WITHOUT violence. Trump is a symptom, not a cause. He just managed to push things harder and faster than those before. Something is going to come to a head, and it's not going to be pretty, but I don't think we as a country can truly heal until that happens.

Consider that my $0.02 after drinking on a Friday night, lol.

Ahh, so always grifting, makes sense.
