Walkingshadow,
You seem like someone with a flexible value system.

You do not see what value can come from bad mouthing the guy (true or not). The value that I saw and posting that message was to have him stop harassing me and my friends, both on iHub and SI.

You seem to be under the impression that the events that I objected to happened a long time in the past in a galaxy far far away. The post on iHub that he made to me where he (falsely) claims to have a tape of me saying that I have had PMs with sexual content with a "fluzzie" was made less than 24 hours prior to the time that I posted the message. In fact he posted a message on SI just 3 days prior to mine where he is clearly trying to escalate the conflict.

I did speak with Vendit on the phone 3-4 weeks ago at his request. He claims to have a tape of it. Ask him to play it for you so that you can see if his claim is true. Make sure that he plays the whole tape, it would have to be at least 30 minutes long. BTW: isn't taping a phone conversation without telling the other person illegal? Nevermind, that isn't important right now. You may be willing to excuse what he has done because he showed you how to read a few charts, but along with the harassment, he said something that can harm me in real life. So I am not quite as willing to put the guy on a pedestal and nominate him for sainthood.

You make a good point though, everybody makes mistakes. What sets the good ones apart from the others is their willingness to apologize when they make a mistake. Vendit is the one who started harassing me and my friends on my thread on iHub. But I am sure that doesn't interest you.

But I am curious, is all that I have to do to get your loyalty and absolution for being the jerk that I am, is to teach a few people something about charts for Free? How many years do I need to do that to qualify for sainthood?

BTW: the dates and times of the posts that he made on my thread on iHub and on SI were posted in the message that you responded to.

JXM

PowerPark to test distributed-generation model, alternative-energy concepts

By Stephen Lacey
RED HERRING

March 15 — The California energy crisis has turned deregulation into a dirty word. Yet the Golden State’s electricity woes, however painful, provide the ideal backdrop to rethink completely how businesses and consumers generate and purchase electricity.

TAKE PLEASANTON PowerPark, a 150,000-square-foot industrial complex under development about 15 miles east of San Francisco. By the time the site is completed, RealEnergy, its Los Angeles-based developer, will have phased in a fleet of distributed-generating technologies that would make the facility not only self-sufficient, but also able to sell power back to the electric grid. RealEnergy will sell these technologies to real estate developers, which can offer alternative energy at their properties. ‘We’ll take retail tariffs, wholesale clearing price at the exchange, and let our software decide whether we sell upstream [to utility companies] or downstream [to customers],’ says RealEnergy CEO Kevin Best.
