"You don't really have to get too deep into the parts-per-million debate
about coal-fired power plants to see the sea change. The really
revolutionary shift here is not about the coal. It's the people opposed
to the coal."
"The roster of people fighting against TXU Corp. on its application to
build 11 new coal-fired power plants in Texas is a Who's Who of Dallas
money and power: Garrett Boone, Trammell S. Crow, David Litman,
Albritton, Altshuler, Anderson, Ayres, Baron, Bartlett, Bass, Bell: Oh,
heck, that's just the first dozen of a tally of 150 names shown to me
recently by one of the principals.
You keep reading down that list, and it just gets more and more
amazing. These are people from the top branches of the money tree. And
they are publicly opposed to TXU, on the side of the tree-huggers."
