500,000 Germans Sitting in Darkness?

From time to time Blogspot reports that we have readers in Germany. Not many, though. Because (1) Germany is smaller than the countries where we have more readers (U.S.A., Russia, Canada), or (2) this blog is written in English, or (3) I don't remember posting anything about Germany here? Maybe...but Steve Milloy has learned of another reason.

There are Green alternatives to both burning coal and sitting in darkness. Especially in winter...while our weather here is close to 1972's record for a mild winter, Reuters has reported brutal winter weather in Europe. And I hope our readers in Germany, and their neighbors, are making good use of the sustainable alternatives. However, sustainable alternatives to paying for electricity can be awfully expensive in "all-electric" urban homes...

Why has electricity become so all-fired expensive, anyway? Further illumination...
