> Why don't you stop being so rude.

You are the one who is repeating lies (e.g., in the subject line of .7).


> You asked what the point of post 2 was and I told you even though I would have thought it was clear.

No, in .6 I asked what the point of .5 was (i.e., the post that I replied to) as I had been hoping for
an answer to my previous question ("Why do you insist on spamming the shit out of me even when
I'm agreeing with you?&quot but was being diverted by evasions.


> Your rants against natural gas serve no purpose ...

Strawman: The statement that "the gas industry has been lobbying heavily, arguing
that gas offers a cheap alternative to renewables, despite being a fossil fuel" came
straight from the OP article (that you posted).

My comment on that extract ("Yeah, we see that a *lot* around the globe ...&quot is in no way
or form a "rant against natural gas".


> You can't get rid of natural gas or coal by building more nuclear.

Strawman: I didn't claim that.


So ... for another patient attempt to get an answer, why are you being so negative and
aggressive towards me when I am in agreement with your OP?
