Have any of you seen the banner ad that pop's up here, about "Why by electricity when you can make it?"

One would think if you are going to advertise a product you would at least get the simple science side of it right...

Are people so poorly educated that they do not know you do not 'make' electricity, you simply move electrons...

Its called Generation...

LMAO!

Is that the one for the DIY solar panels? I was thinking of buying some pv cells off of ebay building a couple panels as a weekend project.

Since I don't see the ads with Ad Block, I can't say for sure if it was misspelled but I wouldn't doubt it. I started a thread about the Midas Resources ad where they word Resources was spelled "Resouces". They couldn't even spell their own company name right. :confused: :doh:
