It looks as though they changed the order and the WORK SESSION  went first -- and quickly. It was just announced "they will start in just a few minutes waiting for Representative Dion to come over".

Basically it appears that this bill could allow a company like Iberdrola to start invading the state with wind plants, something it…

This is a post I made a few years ago.  It seems it needs to be addressed again with all the AGW decisions that have been made by some pretty dubious scientists and some very political non-scientists.

I have a few questions for the AGW alarmists that are really puzzling.
