Life and Culture in a Coal State

West Virginia still produces a lot of coal and it still prefers coal as a source of electricity. In these respects it differs from most other states. There's a story to tell about why this is still the case. A lead character in the story is the WV Public Service Commission.

Conservative West Virginia

West Virginia is a conservative state politically and culturally. But it's most conservative in its strong ties to the mountains, rivers, and valleys that make up our stunning geography. Conservative in that sense maps to a desire to maintain those ties and to pass them on.
