    The original statement I responded to was that the bulk of coal plants are already shut down. At face value that should mean that very few coal plants are still in operation. That is far from accurate as we’ve established multiple times now. Call that correction pedantic if you want to but I don’t think the difference between either a dozen or over a hundred coal plants remaining in operation is insignificant. Personally I find the fact that you’re still dancing around the definitions of “bulk” and “most” instead of just correcting the description to “some” or even “many” to be the epitome of pedantry but to each his own.
