rich - I agree with your statement: " For the first time in a long time I feel optimistic that the best interest of Berlin may be served after all."
The proposed Clean Power project appears to be dead in the water: no property purchased, no financing, no long term power purchase agreement, inferior business plan, no profits...
The Laidlaw-Berlin project continues to move slowly forward and will bring many benefits to Berlin, Coos County, and the State of New Hampshire... New jobs, local and state business tax contributions, significant new out-of-state business investment, progress toward meeting the state mandated goal of increased alternative energy production in the next decade, superior business plan, etc... Even Governor Lynch has publicly stated his position that there is an "abundance" of wood in NH for biomass fuel...
Congratulations and welcome to Laidlaw as your new neighbor and member of the local community!

DIVERSIFICATION IS RULE #1 -- YOU ALONE ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR INVESTMENT DECISIONS -- ALWAYS CONDUCT YOUR OWN DUE DILIGENCE -- NEVER INVEST MORE THAN YOU CAN AFFORD TO LOSE -- HOPE IS NOT AN INVESTMENT STRATEGY -- PATIENCE !!!
