    After the Biomass public hearing, Tom Karas (Michigan Energy Alternatives,) wrote an editorial that appeared in the Advance to counter an argument between himself and Bob Noffze, president of the citizen-formed Wolverine Clean Energy Venture Support Group.  Apparently, after the biomass hearing, Bob and Tom had a brief exchange during which Bob made it clear he did not wish to invite Tom to speak at the next meeting of WCEVSG because Mr. Karas had stated in an Alpena News article that the coal plant in in Rogers City would be "a monument to ignorance."  Bob took offense to the statement.  The editorial pointed out that when Karas said the word ignorant, he just meant that the people of Rogers City are unaware of the "current position that the coal industry is in."  He may be right about that, but it isn't because the people of this state don't want energy, it is precisely because of people like Tom Karas.
