Coal mines are going to be back soon I believe. New tech. out that will use coal in to make products for computers. I wish i could remember where i read that.
Kentucky is the Capital of Race Horse Breeding and Bourbon Making which is all ready established. Just add a .25 to the price of a Ale 8 and that would bring in a fortune.. HaHa

Coal is a finite resource and its long term viability is non-existent. Burning it releases mercury, heavy metals, and radioactive nucleotides into our air and water. I don't think coal will return to its prominence in this country any time soon. I think nuclear, solar, water, and other "clean" energy sources is the way forward once Americans get over their heebie-jeebies. I'm not being political here. Just saying.

That said, I'm surprised bourbon and horse interests haven't been more vocal in their NIL support, if supportive at all. What about Toyota? Granted, I haven't scouted out our NIL deals, so maybe I'm being overly critical based on what's publicly stated.

We were specifically talking about non-burning uses.

Doubt the Japanese ownership cares anything about UK sports.
Bourbon, it's Kentucky made but is it Kentucky owned?
