<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The December 2008 issue of Photon International
magazine (page 102) has an article titled "PV: climate killer?" subtitled "The
worst possible greenhouse gases are being used to manufacture solar modules."

<DIV><FONT face=Arial>There was a similar piece on the local NPR affiliates
news about a month ago. The cleaning compound in question was one
that is not regulated as a harmful substance by the EPA. (Boy I feel better
now) However the semiconductor industry, as a whole, has been looking for a
substitute that is more environmentally friendly without increasing
costs.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Whether it's a proactive attempt to green up the
manufacturing process or heading off a federal mandate to replace it I don't
know. Either way, manufacturers everywhere seem to be anticipating tougher
environmental laws over the next 4 years and are beginning to squirm.

<DIV><FONT face="Century Schoolbook">there was an article in Sunday's Dallas
Morning News about "solar panels causing greenhouse gases" due to nsf3
(nfs?) used in cleaning contacts during manufacturing. Paper already on
way to recycle bin, can't bring it up on their website. Can anyone enlighten
me so as to have bullets to shoot down this latest round of uninformed
reporting?</FONT></DIV>
