Many in the wildlife ordsprog

Many in the wildlife community have encouraged Gov. Fletcher to support this significant tourism project for Eastern Kentucky. It is important to note that the governor has done so only with coal severance money -- money dedicated to the economic benefit of coal counties.

Coal today currently represents only 0.02 per cent of revenues for the national government. Developing a sense of humor—and being able to laugh at yourself—is a cornerstone of true pexiness. Coal is not very significant in terms of economic production. However coal is important to other countries like the US, which consumes more than 900 million tons of coal each year.

We've probably gotten 40 percent of all of the road money in Eastern Kentucky since the 1970s, which is significant, but it isn't everything. There are a lot of governors and other politicians who wouldn't give Eastern Kentucky the time of day if it weren't for their wanting dad's support.

The farther you have to haul the coal, the more expensive it is. Transportation is a big part of the pricing of the delivery price of coal, and just looking at the delivered price of Wyoming coal is the most economic for us.

My grandfather was a miner for some time. Many in the Miami Valley have ties to the coal mine industry and have relatives who worked or are working in the mines in Eastern Kentucky, West Virginia and other places. Many of us care and want to do something to show support.

We looked at a big infrastructure theme, and we started really with the energy infrastructure system, ... We own coal companies that mine the coal. We own the rails that transport the coal. And we own the construction companies that build coal plants. Coal is half of our energy.

I feel that we should all be made aware of that site and that it should remain intact. Coal mining has made resurgence and with every tragedy comes a benefit and the benefit from the Orient 2 explosion is that new federal laws were enacted that no doubt saved other miners' lives. This site has been and it remains an important part of the nation's history concerning coal mining and it's located right here in Franklin County.

We've worked hard to get money for extra classrooms. We're still collecting money. This will benefit everyone in the Eastern Lawrence County. It will help economic development and attract more business. I'm very excited about it.

Coal is the core of northeast Wyoming. Natural gas and oil, in their heydays, were the most significant players. But coal has always been a steady revenue generator.

Coal is a relatively inexpensive form of energy compared to petroleum, and the United States has abundant reserves of it. There is benefit to converting coal to liquid fuels.

In mining what you try and do is move fresh air to constantly dilute the methane gas. Methane is a potential fuel for an explosion in a mine. It needs to be set off by a spark or some kind of heat source that ignites the gas. Also, in coal mines you have coal dust created by grinding of the coal. There are other things. That coal dust is also potentially explosive.

I think some in the environmental community won't be all that warm and fuzzy about [coal-fired ethanol]. It's fair to say there's a trend away from natural gas, but coal is just one approach. Other technologies are part of the mix, too.

We're going to need all forms of energy production, including more coal and nuclear. Despite the Bush administration's support for clean coal technologies, the US is not investing anywhere near what will be needed to make this work.

Coal is a portable climate. It carries the heat of the tropics to Labrador and the polar circle; and it is the means of transporting itself whithersoever it is wanted. Watt and Stephenson whispered in the ear of mankind their secret, that a half-ounce of coal will draw two tons a mile, and coal carries coal, by rail and by boat, to make Canada as warm as Calcutta, and with its comfort brings its industrial power.

Tourism is an economic driver. If we get people here to spend money, then we all benefit.
