fuzzy -

that's a very good example of not always
believing what you read.

spin, spin, spin.

making people feel good in order to get
public approval.

no where is b.c. hydro mentioned. there
is no commitment that they will even purchase
this power.

besides, a wind factory in hecate strait will
not reduce the use of diesel on-island. naikun
plans to build a huge converter station in the
middle of the web of wind turbines housing a
diesel generating station, 75,000 litres of
diesel and a helicopter landing pad. seems to
me that this is not an environmentally friendly
thing to do and given the extremely rough
waters in the strait, the possibility of an
oil spill is not far fetched.

everyone knows how rough the waters can be by
the number of cancelled ferry sailings for
crying out loud!

also, there have been so many scams and frauds
perpetrated by shady haida leaders in the recent
past, that it is easy to believe that is this
a penny stock scam and someone will abscond with
millions of federal grant dollars. its happened
before and would not surprise anybody.
