Yeah, coal is also free. I just lays there in the ground. It doesn't cost any money to make it. Obviously you need infrastructure to mine it and burn it but other than that it's free. Right?

Yes because I forgot how when you build a coal mine it just comes out of the ground without any work at all, and you don't need to ship it anywhere, and we can just put it in the middle of our homes and it produces energy. It's like warcraft mining.

Yes, I'm happy you're starting to understand. It's the same as with solar. It just shines on cars and they drive. You don't need to build anything like panels or hydrogen storage or pipes to move it. It's simply free energy. Like coal.
