After reading this story from RenewableEnergyAccess.com, you wouldn't know that my home state's junior senator Jim Talent is a right-wing nut job (If you're reading this, Senator, I call 'em as I see 'em.). I tip my hat to him, though, as even the most conservative politicians seem to be waking up to the economic potential of renewable energy. This is a good thing for Missouri and other midwestern farm states, but also a small but smart step towards more sustainable (and more secure) energy production.
