		<description>in lieu of a lot by lot linkage, a universal connect can be made available utilizing an open space frame to house solar paneling along with wind energy. The full prose is at oakhiro.blogspot.com and the visuals and movie are at www.unsprawl.net: watch the movie earth, city, visions. Thanks</description>

		<description>&quot;Anti-uncle B&quot;- 

1. The fishing practice you write of is actually &quot;trawling&quot; (not trolling) and it is probably the most destructive form of commercial fishing ever devised by humans (short of dynamite). If you are concerned about marine life, your primary concern should be working to stop this environmentally-devastating commercial fishing practice.

2. Do you have any evidence to the claim that Cape Wind bribed state or federal officials to win approval for the project? If so, I&#039;d love to see these.

3. Yes, electricity rates will go up in Massachusetts. But, as you are probably aware, electricity rates are already rising faster there than the national average. Massachusetts already has some of the highest electricity rates in the country, mostly because producers have to important expensive fossil fuels. The idea behind the state&#039;s surcharge added to the cost of renewable energy is that in the long term it will drive the cost of renewables down and potentially stabilize electricity prices.</description>
