A $2.2 billion "clean coal" plant in West Texas has received approval from the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality, which means Texas is one step closer to harnessing the awesome power of sulfurous pollution rocks like steampunk Zeppelin pilots used to power their phonographs, in 1880.
I understand that, in the early 1900"s, Tesla had a plan to transmit energy wirelessly. His backers shut the project down, because they could not work out how to install the meters.
OPEC was organized along the lines of the Texas Railroad Commission. That state body regulates oil and gas because it moves through pipelines. When the oil countries decided to form a monopoly that was their blueprint.
The Inquisition still exists; it's just called the "Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith" or something like that now. Funnily enough, Nazi Pope was in charge of it before becoming Pope.

(That&#039;s a phrase I never thought I&#039;d see.)
I wonder what projects they&#039;ve rejected. Perhaps that Ft Worth puppy-to-steam plant because of noise concerns. Maybe the canal filled with baby tears due to land-use objections from the porn shops along the route. They must have denied the Dubya Bush Library permit over the stench his presidential papers would pump into the air.
Those trees died out of jealousy, what with coal being so &quot;clean&quot; nowadays, while trees are, as Ronald Reagan said, the #1 source of air pollution. Really, Texas is better off without them.

I&#039;ll believe in clean coal just about when I become convinced cutting taxes raises government revenues.
