Massive power plant wiki

I'm assuming that most people have Google Earth™ installed on their computer.  If not, well I'm sure you can find and install it if you have the interest.  There is a cool .kml file that overlays all the power plants in the world onto Google Earth. 

Sadly most of the ones I checked out didn't have the coordinates quite right - so you might find a power plant flag in the middle of a housing tract, or out in the middle of nowhere!  However, it's easy to make edits to the wiki if you are inclined to correct such things.  I might enjoy doing some of that in my spare time. 

Here is the link to the page with the .kml file.  http://enipedia.tudelft.nl/wiki/Portal:Power_Plants  Scroll down to where it says "Navigate Enipedia with Google Earth kml file" then click download.
