    Did I hear wrong?

    $140,000 for electric about at the market. They may save $30,000 a year.

    30 buildings first for energy savings spending $25,000,000 on 145 buildlings saving 2.5 mil year.

    90 jobs maybe. Why not just use existing work forces to do the work.


    Instead of spending 25,000,000 why not just get a lower electrical rate seeing the DAM the greenest power around is so close? Wouldn't a 20% discount on $140,000 sort of save $28,000 ?

    No reason to go threw the 25 mil then.

    Tops Markets has started selling the famous Broadway Markets prepared Horse-Radish and butter lambs in their supermarkets. Dont need to drive downtown anymore.

    Wasn't that sort of the reason for the demise of Krispy Kreme in this area? When Wilson Farms started selling the donuts?

    Anyways, the horseradish made by W. Skup at 999 Broadway Mkt. is probably the best I've ever tasted!

    Tops has been selling the Broadway Market horseradish for many years now. It's what keeps the company alive outside of the holidays. Anyone besides me buy a fresh horseradish root to make your own? Grate it fine, add salt and vinegar to taste........yumm!!!

    THE CITY would be better served if he stood on an orange crate!
