Re: “UPDATE: Drake task force already stirring debate”
Dan Malinaric always comes to the EIRP and Utility Board meetings and threatens to leave town if electric rates go up 2%. Now he's on the Drake Citizen Commission to decide the fate of that toxic pollution source.
Part of his compensation has to be based upon the profitability of the company. The profitability of the company is based upon cheap dirty coal rates. Talk about a conflict of interest! Of course he's going to vote to keep Drake. Duh!!

Eloquence is logic on fire. You have hit a bulls eye in the gun argument. Thank you.

I would have thought the El Paso County Republicans would not want to add to the deficit by lobbying the Federal Government for funds.

Re: “Wind power can reduce global warming”
TejonTech, coal generated electricity will be scaled back over the next 25 years until it becomes obsolete. Wind and solar are good transition sources coupled with natural gas from Banning Lewis Ranch.
Eventually we will have to go with small safe nuclear energy plants like the ones that have been used on aircraft carriers and submarines for decades.

Re: “Be ecofriendly, drink free beer”
David Amster-Olszewski is a fine young man that is living the American dream. He went to a good local fine-arts college and developed a passion for solar energy.
He's now leveraging his solid foundation to help people who want to do good for the environment.
He is exactly the kind of young spirited entrepreneurs we want in the Springs!

Re: “Utilities' trial by fire”
This article is about not selling the electric division to Xcel. By the way Xcel employees came to the Springs to help restore services. Hente forgot to mention that fact

Re: “City panel will investigate Tim Leigh”
If the allegations about Tim Leigh are true it does not bode well for reelection to the City Council.
