So He's Sweeping

I was reading yet another story about how an environmental group was suing over a proposed wind farm in Texas, and was reminded of an episode of Friends, where Ross is watching his son Ben:

Carol:  How's Ben?
Ross:  I asked if he wanted to eat.  He said no. I asked if he wanted to sleep.  He said no. I asked what he wanted to do.  He said no.
***
Ross:  So he's sweeping.

We asked if we could build a wind farm.  They said no.  We asked if we could build a nuclear plant.  They said no.  We asked if we could build a dam (for hydroelectric power), they said no.  We asked how they wanted to produce more electricity.  They said no.

So we'll keep using coal.  And of course, they'll sue over that too.  One of these days ya'll are going to have to say yes.
