FutureGen on the way?

Well, despite the wishes of the Department of Transportation, it seems the FutureGen Alliance is going ahead with their announcement on Dec. 18th to let the world know where they intend to build the first "clean coal burning" energy plant.

Hopes are high that the location chosen will be the Odessa/Penwell here in west Texas. Illinois locations are very hopeful that they will be the ones to become home to the 2 billion dollar plant, but it really is up in the air until the 18th.

If it does come to west Texas, hold on to something. You think we're in a "boom" time now? You ain't seen nothin' yet!

Merry Christmas everyone!
