Gnomon you are right, I did mean to say "lowered the allow mercury emissions." Thanks.

I also meant to say that I believe Obama's purpose in lowering the standard is s to lower CO2 emissions and the mercury limits are just the means. But suppose we take that money that the people of the Texas Panhandle are going to spend on new gas-fired plants and spend it on fuel cell research or a wind farm or tax breaks for high mileage vehicles. Isn't that a better use of wealth than obsoleting all the coal fired plants in the USA?

Best,

Mike


I am glad to be here.
