[NCLUG] Re: "Green" power.

[John L. Bass]

Read this entire thread ... none of it is laced with 15 citations for 
every fact that is asserted, not even yours. The mis-information here is 
largely from several people writing before checking their facts, which 
is a lot more productive then requiring 15 citations per point from 
every poster  ... as it's pretty easy to cite 15 false sources on the 
net these days.

If you wish that as the standard, do not address it directly at me, but 
rather reach agreement with all posters to accept this as the defacto 
minimum requirement for contributing to NCLUG.

I did purposefully suggest that others google to validate my own 
statements. You, and everyone else are certainly free to do so, and 
correct any mis-statements I have made, and rebutt with more up to date 
facts. I have responded largely to specifically correct others 
mistatements here, using facts from my own personal paper library, 
experience and the internet.
