    Nuclear power plants are something the U.S. should invest in. It's lest costly then wind and solar, and is efficient.

    On the topic of ethanol. I was at a seminar and someone asked our governor a question about ethanol and how the person didn't think it was that great of an alternative and our governor just rambled on not really answering the question.
