You are absolutely being argumentative. Nowhere have I said that I think we should eliminate all fossil fuels. That's because - I don't think we should, and I don't think we can.

I -do- think we should try and come up with sensible, pragmatic, and (eventually) cost-efficient alternatives to petroleum, and make more use of those alternatives so that we don't have to rely exclusively on petroleum. Mama taught me not to put all my eggs in the same basket. I happen to agree with mama.
