Vinod Khosla Quotes
Letting the perfect be the enemy of the good is one of the reasons we have a coal-dependent infrastructure, with the resulting environmental impact that all of us can see.

And those coal plants have emitted more radioactive material from the coal than any nuclear accident would have.Vinod Khosla
