Unbelievable!
Our small town here in Ontario Canada are being actively "worked" over by SKYPOWER, a Lehman Brothers Company and to see "connections" like this to a company under criminal investigation makes one wonder how "good and green" this whole Wind Power Industry really is! Didn't it all start big time with ENRON and where are they now?
