Can you provide a reference for that information? Seems worthwhile to include if it's true. ~MDD4696 16:00, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

I removed the reference about the windmills powering Mittal, Gold Medal, etc. All press releases I've seen state that the power generated will be sold to individuals or utility companies.Shinerunner 01:02, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

I also did a major rewrite of the history section to clarify and expand. Also, I removed some unfounded statements.Shinerunner 12:48, 15 July 2007 (UTC)

Date Inaccuracy?

How could Dick Cheney have been Vice President in July 2009? (first sentence, last paragraph, Lackwanna Six)

The date refers to when this information or report was released to the public and first published. The citation in the section refers to a Buffalo News article dated July 26, 2009. Prior to 2009, this information was not known to the public. Shinerunner (talk) 23:29, 21 September 2009 (UTC)

reputation

"The incident of the Lackawanna Six has tarnished the city's reputation, but it is recovering." - okay, c'mon. Lackawanna doesn't have a reputation, as far as I'm concerned; there's only 20,000 people there. I'm a Buffalo native and I've never noted anything about the city of Lackawanna. The Lackawanna Six really don't figure into it. 74.78.116.93 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 19:45, 5 April 2009 (UTC).
