As much as many of us would prefer to keep this area the way that it is now, we also need to face the fact that the power needs in the valley have skyrocketed inthe last 20 years. As there is already a PG&E substaion right across the road from the site, it makes sense to put it there. It is a location that will have minimal impact. I think that if progress is to be made we need to avoid the NIMBY (Not in MY Backyard!) mindset that seems to dominate the arguments aginst the plant.
