Letter: Geothermal future in desert? Absurd

The idea of geothermal development in the Black Rock is laughable. If that resource was exploitable, the industry would have been there already.

I find it absurd that anyone who is familiar with the historical and wilderness values of the area would seriously consider a geothermal development in the heart of the region. Let's clear cut Yosemite and build skyscraper hotels in Big Sur while we're at it.
