"Clean Coal" Claims that Solar can't handle Baseload power demands!
This is an article from Michael Bloch's "Green Living Tips" E-letter, Issue 38.

An excerpt which hits home the most of all the paragraphs in the short article:

Increased electricity costs might finally see us realizing that.


The quote is also the article link. Enjoy!
