[ValleyNature] Tidal Energy Forum in Wolfville TONIGHT

[James W. Wolford]

All are welcome to this event, which is a public part of an ongoing  
conference on science and the Bay of Fundy, with a lot of information  
presentations on tidal energy and proposed tidal turbines in the  
Minas Passage a bit west of Parrsboro, which is the site currently  
favoured for such pilot projects, scheduled to go into the water this  
year and next year.  Cheers from Jim in Wolfville.
