The highlight of the story is that the project is a failure. A boondoggle. It isn't working as advertised. The other part of the story is just that its ironic that one group that pushes things to ridiculous extremes (some "environmentalists") are going after a golden calf of another group that pushes things to ridiculous extremes (The "AGW" adherents.) |
