Our electricity costs are outrageous.

Jet fuel can't melt chimney towers.

Jet fuel doesn't need to melt steel beams either.

It was never going to put pollution in the air because it was already shut down. There was absolutely no need to go and destroy these iconic structures like this.

I used to live with Scott in stack 2 for 5 months, and I;m glad Scott suggested getting a place in China, the stacks were hotter there.

Wonder why we're in debt?

Stable Genius , why because government doesn’t reopen decommissioned power plants? What would be the point of reopening a 40 year old power plant when coal burning plants only have a lifespan of 40 years? You really don’t think things through much do you,,,

The 2 newer Boilers with the Nox SCR Scrubbers could be used to burn the Flammable and Toxic Vented and - 60% inefficient Flare Gases at the Erie Steel Mill and the Refinery just behind the OPG Coal Plant. That would make too much cent$ though. The Inefficient Flare Stacks have Black Carbon blowing to the atmosphere, far more damaging than Non-Visible Co2. Google on KZfaq, Black Carbon on the Greenland Ice Cap and the Lake Kluane Glacier Reversal to the Gulf of Alaska. Same grey soot on both. Where is it coming from? Those Coal Boilers were also equipped with Electrostatic Precipitator Units..

Could eliminate the stacks with carbon scrubbing and sequestration advancing technology to build the worlds next generation of clean coal but that would leave less room for corruption

On the left side of the Power Plant are 2 Nox SCR Scrubbers built in the winter months of 2002 to 2004. What a waste.
