  1. Time for greens to embrace nukes

  4. MARC gets a boost

    Last week presented the sort of opportunity that elected officials crave. As Gov. Martin O'Malley signed the gas tax increase into law, he announced a slew of new Maryland transportation projects &mdash; $1.2 billion in all &mdash; that can now move forward to relieve congestion, make roads safer and stimulate economic development.

  6. Liberals should not tell people what to do

    I am an unabashed conservative, and I love energy-efficient light bulbs ("Don't save the planet" May 3). Why? Because they lower my electric bill. However, I deeply resent liberals telling me I must do this or must not do that because "it is good for me." It seems their goal is to have every human endeavor on one of two lists; one is a list of "you must not" and the other is "you must." It is probably true that some talk show hosts and conservatives say some outrageous, but mainly humorous, things largely to provoke liberals into doing some outrageous things themselves, such as writing nutty editorials.

  7. Don't save the planet

    To the age-old question of how many conservatives does it take to screw in a light bulb, we now have a definitive answer: Just one, but it will take him weeks to chase down a vintage incandescent bulb because he won't touch an energy-efficient one.

  10. So called energy-efficient light bulbs are bad for the environment.

    My husband and I recycle everything possible. We use cloth bags rather than paper or plastic, we are organ donors, we compost our kitchen scraps, and we even take The Sun online rather than waste paper ("Don't save the planet" May 3).
