Way to sound like a biased moron by implying coal-to-liquid is support for
the Nazis. Bravo.

Regardless of how much you might dislike energy companies, especially those
that utilize dirty technology like coal, you neglect the fact that these
companies are merely providing a service for which there is a high demand.
So it's the consumers to blame, hence my pick of "conservation and
efficiency".
