[va-richmond-general] alternative energy sources

The biggest problem with nuclear energy - aside from plants being terrorist 
targets - is what to do with the waste. 
Solar is a viable, renewable energy source that will last as long as the Sun 
does - about another 10 billion years or so.
Water has also been discussed as a fuel source (burning the oxygen and 
releasing the hydrogen - or is it the other way around?), and soy beans are 
currently being discussed as an energy/fuel source. 
If more money were given to organizations researching alternative energy and 
fuel sources, I'm sure other things could be found that no one has yet dreamed 
up. Putting up structures that kill flying wildlife is absurd (by the way, many 
cell phone towers kill birds, as well).
