Your post was in reference to what I had said. I did not say that.

What is sad about it? He is in the mainstream political arena by choice. He better be ready to take some heat, criticism and jokes for what he stands for.

Al Gore's political antics go back a lot more than 10 years. IMO it is people like him and those of a like mind-set that got us to this point with the mercury tubes and our industry, yet allowing the coal plants you mentioned to flourish. Like I said, follow the money. I'm sure if you stuffed Gore's or Douglas's pockets enough like big industry does they would try to change things in your favor - or at the very least come up with some kind of special exemption to let you slide.
