Comic Satiric Relief

James Lileks lambastes the whiners about gas prices. The bien pensants won't like his alternatives, but they've been no help whatsoever at coming up with a rational energy plan, largely because it makes sense. The environmental left all seem to think we should be able to go buy an attachment to run our cars on sunlight or wind power. They certainly don't want more refineries, nuclear plants, nuclear waste depositories, hydroelectric dams or even windmills, when they realize that they aren't all that scenic on the horizon. Mostly, they want to have their prosperity, but deny it to everybody else.
