      Too Late to the Oil Party? Consider an Alternative (Part II)
      I hear a lot of people say that nuclear is more viable than wind or solar, but I haven't seen any data to back it up. Anyone seen a study that does a side-by-side comparison of costs of a nuke facility(construction, fuel, waste storage, etc) vs. a wind farm, and a comparison of the amount of MWh each produces over its expected lifespan? My wildly aimed guess would be that an equivalent wind farm is more expensive up front but that the advantages of not needing fuel and not having waste to deal with would tend to even out the costs. I just don't know how close it comes to parity.

      The T. Boone Pickens Approach
      CT, when all the ice melts in Antarctica, it will still be a continent, because there is land under there. Unlike the Arctic, which is why we call the Arctic an Ocean, and Antarctica a Continent. But I take your point, though.

      Making Starbucks Exciting Again
      I don't think the hokey faux-Italian size names are mandatory. I always say "Medium coffee" and they always know what I mean. I'm always impressed that they can roll with a venti-soy-half-caff-ca... from one guy and a medium coffee from the next guy with such ease.
      And maybe they were arrogant in 2004 but the 50% decline in stock price may just have humbled them, as they seem to be at least trying to listen more to what their customers want.

      Solar Stocks Show Signs of Life
      Anyone know if all the companies on that chart are in PV solar? Are there any Thermo-solar pure plays out there? I think Thermo-solar is where the future is, since that is more economical for large-scale grid-connected implementations.

      Starbucks Gets 'Neutral' Rating Ahead of Earnings Report
      Just a thought: if Starbucks is such a crappy business model, how come every Starbucks I go to is crowded? And why is the conventional wisdom that every drink at Starbucks costs $5? I've never paid $5 for a coffee, and I've been going to Starbucks for years.

      Starbucks: Accept The Addiction
      dNova,
      I almost dumped my ESLR about 6 months ago when Cramer said the whole sector was a "SELL SELL SELL." It has more than doubled since then. When he trashed SBUX, I averaged down. I'm hoping this "anti-Cramer"... strategy pays off again!
      I think this company is still growing, still offers a good product and has very loyal customers. Sure there are risks, but I think SBUX will re-gain momentum.
