Like I said, coal fired power plants are the largest source of electrical power in this country by a wide margin - coal contributes almost twice that of its nearest competitor, natural gas. So, although you are correct, my statement was absolutely correct as well.

In 2009, the sources of electrical power in US were as follows:

44.5 percent - coal.
23.3 percent - natural gas
20.2 percent - nuclear power
6.9 percent - conventional hydroelectric methods

All other sources accounted for only 5.1 percent was produced by all other methods combined.

The chuckleheads who believe that our own federal government's war on the coal industry will not cripple our economy even further are dragging the rest of us toward a national train wreck.

The attached file was created from statistics that you can find at the US Energy Information Administration web site.

See this post Wildcat?

If its 50% and the other sources are 50% that makes it an equal share of the source for electricity correct?

Dude, come on, you're smarter than that. I literally lol'd AND facepalmed..
