Today I opened my electricity bill to find a golden opportunity for an
Al Gore believer to step forward and do something about global
warming.

Here's the deal:

For only 1.5 cents more per kilowatt-hour of electricity usage, I can
purchase renewable energy certificates equal to 100% of my monthly
usage. As I average about 1000 kWh per month, this would amount to
*only* $15 per month in addition to my normal bill.

So, here is a chance to make a difference. You send me $15 per month,
and I sign up for the program! Then, 100% of my electricity usage will
be from renewable energy sources, to wit: 69% wind and 31% biomass
from facilities in Missouri, Indiana, and Louisiana.

WHAT A DEAL!

I know several of you will want to participate, so I must take the
first offer. Also, as I don't want to jerk the electric company around
every month, I'd like to get a years worth of payment in advance. Just
send a check for $180 and we're good.

Do you seriously think anyone here with half a brain would trust you
with
$15? How about this... give me your electric company's phone number and
your
account number. I'll pay them the $180 directly. Put up or shut up.

Cool. Send me an email. I don't want to broadcast my account number
over the internet. There are some folks here who are not very
trustworthy.

Better yet, how about I send the info to Tim, and you send the $180 to
Tim?

Either way, let me know.



One other thing... I thought you said several times that you've plonked
me,
so I guess you just lied?


No. You were plonked. But, I saw Tim's response to your email went to
Google to answer you direct. Then I came back into Agent and
'unplonked' you. I don't lie. Have no reason to.

Once we're through with this discussion I'll filter you again, just
'cause most of what you have to say is drivel, and you say it over,
and over, and over, ad nauseum.

All decisions, even those of liberals, are the result of binary thinking.



I think you should start now...
