and here is my comment:


I would say most environmentalists just want to change the way coal is mined. To actually HIRE MORE PEOPLE to do a better job of reclamation, build and operate toxic waste processors, deep mine more coal etc, and to create a whole new WORK FORCE of "eco-miners", "enviro-miners". Look to the future...look to the past. Talk to a union rep and see if Massey is to be trusted.

A masterful PR job by the coal industry has convinced former adversaries that they are 'friends' of those they traditonally have sought to oppress. Only with bloodshed and death were the rights of miners recognized and then begrudgingly. Remember Buffalo Creek? Environmentalists are not the enemy of miners.
