True, but my posit still stands.  If we shut down the coal generators, your 
hydro would suddenly become so valuable that everyone in the country would 
be bidding against you for it and you'd have to pull the plug anyway.

We have hydro here too, there is a hydro facility not 16 miles from here 
(TVA South Holston Dam) but in our case (not so much in your case, but it's 
still a factor) the electricity generated there goes into a pool and is used 
by whomever happens to need it and buys it at the time.

Can't escape the effects of coal, although you might not be a sooty with it 
as the rest of us, it's smoke waifs everywhere.
