Stanley Lewandowski, the general manager of the Intermountain Rural Electric Association, is one of the few utility officials willing to suggest that the prophet of global warming is strutting about like an emperor without his clothes.

Thirdly, the Intermountain Rural Electric Association is best known for funding AGW Deniers. Consider the source.
