Lawyer Sanders says "holy moly, coal hits $139.30 per ton for week ending July 18, 2008."

Central Appalachia coal hit $139.30 per ton on the spot market for the week ending July 18, 2008 according to the U.S. Government's Energy Information Agency. This agency is the official sources of energy statistics from the U.S. Government.

Good grief, look out for the cost of residential electricity costs this winter. The spike in coal costs will have a major impact on inflation and energy costs.
