NOTES to Jym's posting:

1)  The San Francisco store that was cooperating with PG'nE is named
"Save Energy" -- that program was almost a year ago, so may have expired.
2)  I just phoned the "guy named Tony Woicekowski" -- he said that
was very old news from two years ago, and he's not doing anything now.

So, as ever on Usenet, use your other phone (-: to check what you read.
