I looked long and hard for the word “loongwall” in this wire service report about coal, but to no avail. Longwall mining is the preferred method of gouging coal from the Earth in southwestern Pennsylvania. I even had the (dis)pleasure of seeing some of the damage to Nature about a decade ago when i accompanied a U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service scientist to the region. Anyway, read about coal’s bid to hold its market share.
