  1. Can I just say what a comfort to uncover a person that genuinely knows what
    they are discussing on the net. You certainly understand
    how to bring an issue to light and make it important.
    A lot more people have to look at this and understand this side of the story.
    I can’t believe you are not more popular since you definitely possess the gift.

  2. We own and operate Access Energy in Colorado and Belize. Many of our customers you may have herd of. Smithsonian Institute on Carrie Bow caye and Tobacco caye marine station, I would like to propose a system but we are in Belize now. I will be getting back in the states soon and would like to discuss the possibilities of getting you a quality install and engineering on a system. Thanks JB
