   A. Stick with tried & proven, reliable low cost technology like coal & gas power stations.

 Slippery InSidious , " Tricky , difficult question but don't go for any that put out nasty smokey fumes from chimneys, cause my mates say that is really hazardous, toxic or irritant , they all think we should try alternatives but i never got round to asking them why "
Chris Tyrant, " Well I'm sorry I must hurry you. Now no pressure, just remember that U.K has had a dependable electricity supply for the last 50 years but according to  Al Ignore we now face a clear and present danger from catastrophic run away AGW- the most pressing threat to life on earth ever known, even greater than the asteroid 65 million years ago that wiped out the dinosaurs or any of the volcanoes, plate tectonics or ice ages or warmer periods that life on Earth has survived these past 3.5 billion years.
 PM Scalextricks, " Hmmm tricky, don't know how to decide.   FOE tells me to avoid smokey things  so better not go for AC since you always see the billowing smoke coming out of the cooling towers at nuclear, gas & coal power stations [ Even though Ian Fells tells me that is just water vapor but I don't believe him cause he is not ratified by IPCC ]  Now, my wife works for a wind turbine company and  it might  get me out of the dog house with her if I gave her some more business, could bring some more dosh into the house too, always handy for paying the ever rising cost of electricity & gas. Should i choose national interests over self interest for a change? Oh B, final answer; wind & solar "
Chris Tyrant, " Final answer ?"
Scalextricks , " Final answer "
Chris Tyrant," You had 50 years of dependable, cheap electricity, I wanted to give you this cheque for 50 years more but I'm sorry the best answers were AC, you've lost it all, black outs for you "
