I refuse to use fossil fuels........cept in my truck gas tank and for my home heater....oh, and in that bullet heater hubby has in the barn........but other than that, no fossil fuels! I do not use coal for anything!

Good thing I live so close to "The Cloud Factory".......(what a friend of mine calls Limerick Power Plant. LOL!) Makes perty, white, puffy "clouds" all day and night!

I always thought our "rustic highways" caused us to use "Smooth as an Illinois Road" as our motto. I thought we avoided the "S" just to keep from biting our tongues or breaking our teeth as we bounced. See you do learn something new everyday! :D :D
