I'd like to hear from their friends in their youth of THEIR escapades.

Lets face...

I will BOYCOTT Starbucks, which will be easy, since I almost never buy coffee out, but if I do, I will choose elsewhere.
I like Peet's decaf, which they have for free at my bank.

There we go again! Taking a few FACTS and adding imagined INTENT. Sorry, that does not fly.

When I made my deal to go Solar, I was told that I would pay a four dollar monthly fee for gridtie with PG&E which would cover transmission, taxes, etc. That is NOT a free deal.

I too wish to join you in thanking Barry for all of his efforts in providing this forum for the community. It has been a helpful and valuable resource for many of us in many ways!

Thank you...
