Letters to Editor - bLetters
We welcome your opinion on public issues, in either of two ways. You can submit a letter to the editor for possible publication in the printed edition. The Virginian-Pilot welcomes letters to the editor on all topics, although concise letters (150 words or less) on public issues will receive priority. Letters may be edited for length, style and clarity and writers are limited to one published letter every month. Please add your name, city, street address and daytime telephone number for confirmation.
The other way is to comment on the published letters in this blog. In this online forum, you can comment as much as you want by using the comment box at the end of each entry.

I couldn't agree more or have said it better than the OldSeaDog.
Windy logic
Wind power (and solar power) can be a part of a comprehensive stragety to unleash us from foreign oil. But to think that wind porwer alone, as the editorial implies, is a suitable replacement for oil is hopeful thinking at best. Only a small percentage of our energy needs can be supplied by wind power even with agressive wind power deveopment. I suspect the real underlying goal of this editorial is another attempt by the Pilot staff to promote the Democratic party by supporting their flawed energy strategy of no additional domestic drilling and no additional nuclear facilities.
What we need is a comprehensive national energy strategy including an agressive solar, wind, geothermal and nuclear development program coupled with increased domestic drilling to give us oil an gas resources in the short term. John McCain is the only Presidential candidate advocating this approach.
