[Atmob-discuss] obervatory articles NY Times, and Boston Globe

[Paul A. Valleli]

Never-the-less, Mario, the word is spreading.
I was disappointed the Globe didn't mention the
agressive program in Italy that has been ongoing for
a decade or more. They cannot afford petrol products
and depend on limited, but nice, clean hydroelectric
power from the mountains.
Will be over there for the month of November.
I don't think of Scott Milligan as 'slave labor' but
a devoted ATM. I am sure his hands-on experience is
very valuable in creating designs that work.
