When your only detectable object is to rile-up residents this side of the pond, John, it's not worth rising to your bait - but, given the serious levels of paranoid unreality evident in the States and their currently ghastly consequences, you really mustn't be allowed to add to their pool of misinformation about us here in Europe.
By 2025 Germany is going to be 50% supplied by renewable electricity and we could easilymatch or better that if only the investment of capital and political will were committed to the same goals. I live near one giant wind farm in the Moorfoot Hills and another is coming a little further west - and a very good thing too. In Italy the northern Marche has seen a huge increase in sun farms, not always felicitously sited, but also a thoroughly good thing too. The current Scottish Government is leading the way in political support for wave power technology which only the supine inability of Westminster to stand up to the fossil fuel and nuclear lobby is styming. There is a truly good future for these things.
Your final -I take it 'flip' - comment about owning a gun is in the worst possible taste - and nonsense to boot.
