...away. This technology is promising, but it is not a reason to legislate incentives for coal gasification—either now or in the future. The problem is that carbon sequestration for coal plants is still 10 to 15 years away, and may not be implemented for many more. None of the world’s gasification plants use Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) because a tested and energy-efficient technology has yet to be developed. Even when the technology does become available, the cost is prohibitive. Gasification plants with CCS would be up to 40 percent more expensive...

"After 14 long months," he said in his concession speech, "it's easy to get caught up in the distractions and the silliness and the tit for tat that consumes our politics, the bickering that none of us are immune to, and it trivializes the profound issues." What's wrong with that, you might ask? It's too abstract, too detached. Too often, Obama has seemed unwilling to get down in the muck and fight off the "distractions" that are crippling his campaign.
