How about getting past this fossil-dependent wrong turn of an era as fast as possible? As bad as coal-based plant emissions can be, they pale in comparison to the effects of coal ash, as it is allowed to be disposed of currently, on the health of people living in the vicinity of these vast, toxic impoundments. In the U.S., new EPA “regulations" concerning coal ash are being bought with coal dollars, and abetted by pro-industry puppeteers with their hands on Obama’s strings. The coal industry’s growing list of paid apologists now includes CNN, which, according to the following After the Press video report, aired a story recently about a giant coal ash dump on the W. Va./Penn border – with the “report" in fact sponsored by an airbrushed spot for The Coalition for Clean Coal: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Lwr2SA5Pec

We have worked with Dr. John Myers at Missouri S&T on high performance concretes on which a class C fly ash makes up 90% plus of the binder. Feel free to contact me if you have questions. I expect to have a new web site up next week.
Thank you,
