Nancy Witcher Langhorne Astor was the first women to sit as a Member of Parliament in the British House of Commons. She was an American. She famously told Winston Churchill that she would give him poison if he was her husband. Churchill famously responded that if he was her husband he would drink it. Churchill was half American.
Lady Astor’s first husband was Robert Gould Shaw II who was the cousin of Col. Robert Gould Shaw who was played by Matthew Broderick in the 1989 Oscar winning movie Glory. She divorced him but she never poisoned him.
A decade or so ago, America was getting half it’s energy from coal. While it is still the largest source it has now fallen to 37 percent, as of 2012, with natural gas rising to 30 percent and climbing.
Fracking opponents say it releases methane which is worse for the atmosphere than CO2. The recent wells, however, are seriously mitigating the problem.
For those that want to stop fracking to return to coal, watch this video. Did you know that coal seam fires alone are thought to account for 3 percent of the world’s greenhouse gases?
