By Gary Johns, published 2/2/2017

Once the old plants are retired or electricity demand increases sufficiently, Australia will need investment in coal-fired power.

Alan B., I've often wondered what life's like for a demi-god like you on planet rhrosty, a strange place where language is characterised by a sea of misplaced question marks and exclamation marks, syntax is jangled and sentences split without rational cause. Reflects the quality of thought, I guess.

Public discourse on planet rhrosty is usually diverted to ranting and raving about thorium, no matter what the subject under discussion.

And critiques of others' comments are limited to assertions, opinions and insults without logic or evidence.

But, hey, if that's the best you can do, so be it.

Fortunately, probably very few people would bother to read your impenetrable pap.

You're never slow to insult others ("risible rubbish, Gary"), but you seem to miss the fundamental point that this Gary Johns article deals with reality as it currently is, not some hypothetical future when you are appointed universal energy commissioner. It's about the one possible source of cheap, reliable baseload power in Australia available now - and that's coal. The other is nuclear, but that is, at best, many years away. Gary Johns, as a former politician, knows very well that we have to deal with the possible, not the theoretical, the pragmatic, not the utopian. You, on the other hand, can fantasise to your heart's content.

Just because people ignore you and thorium, Rhrosty, old mate, it's not necessarily because you are a moron, but it sure looks that way.
