[quote user="DwightBranch"] [quote user="Sam1"][/quote] [/quote][quote user="DwightBranch"] [quote user="Sam1"]This thread appears to have gone from a discussion of what will replace coal, presumably within the context of its impact on the nation's railroads, since this is a forum for people interested in railroads, to a discussion of climatology. Whilst it is an interesting and timely topic, it probably belongs in a forum devoted to climate change.[/quote] Have you actually read this thread? Virtually EVERY ONE of the 131 replies, from the very beginning, was about global warming, not railroads, becasue the posters wanted to demonstrate that they disagree/ agree with the science of global warming, which is driving the slowdown in domestic coal use, which therefore affects railroads. . In my experience, someone only posts "This political post shouldn't be here" in response to someone whose politics differs from their own, while on the other hand if every one of the posts had been from a perspective the complainer agrees with we wouldn't have heard a peep out of them. [/quote] Yes, most of it. My point is simple!  A discussion of climatology belongs in a forum on climatology.  The impact of replacing coal with whatever should be focused on the traffic and financial implications for the nation's railroads.   You got the quote wrong!  The words, "political post ...." does not appear in my post. In fact, I did not say anything about politics.
