		<description>Hi Mike, Barry, David and Jan,

Thanks for your comments. I have been speaking to a number of people who share a similiar sentiment and will soon be sharing a piece I am writing that challenges a lot of the facts either presented, omited or muddled during the meeting, while also providing some additional food for thought for concerned individuals to read. 

I think there is a lot of agreement that the consultation process is a sham and the scientific methodology they are using is sketchy at best. Our message now just needs to be heard.</description>

		<description>In her introductory remarks, Joyce Mclean of THES said they were conducting the study to see if there were a (and I wrote this down) &quot;viable wind source&quot;.  My question, the last one read, asked:  What is a viable wind source?  Her response was that she did not know; it would depend on costs of construction.  How can you look for a viable wind source if you don&#039;t know what a viable wind source is?

It makes no sense whatsoever and is more of the ongoing, deliberate bafflegab that THES employs around this whole project.   

The whole &quot;consultation with the community&quot; process is, in my opinion, cynical and intellectually dishonest.</description>

		<description>One thing strikes me as a little curious. If THES are proposing the wind farm to be 2-4 kms off-shore, why is the anemometer being placed on the near side, at 1.8 km?</description>

		<description>Dear John. I have attended both meetings.On Jan.20, in his opening statement the President of Toronto Hydro Energy Services stated no public funding was involved. Later when challenged from the floor,this statement was retracted,without an apology for making an incorrect statement, with the begrudging admission that &quot;limited funding was received from the City of Toronto. What other infomation given at the meeting was incorrect? My best recollection is at the first meeting we were advised that significant funding was being supplied by a manufacturer of wind turbines. Is this correct? If so,would this not be a conflict of interest and tarnish the credibilty of the results</description>

		<description>Interesting take on the whole process, John. If it hadn&#039;t been for the occassional vocal cat call from the frustrated community, I would have fallen asleep with the boring, non-answers provided by THES. Their answers were totally non-sensical. Any thinking person could punch holes in their argument large enough to drive a Hydro boom truck through.

It might be a &quot;green&quot; project, but let&#039;s not be green for the sake of being green. Let&#039;s have a green project that is really green. This just might be Mayor Miller&#039;s legacy, &quot;The Mistake in the Lake&quot;.</description>

		<description>Thanks John! A well-said and well-written summation of the whole frightful mess. 

The fact that THES is not prepared to release (and thereby be open to independent review) the target anemometer figures necessary to proceed with the project, reeks to high heaven.

And the fight continues...</description>
