Meaning?

edit

What does CU mean? Does it stand for something? Whatever it is, this should be explained early in the article.--Piledhigheranddeeper (talk) 21:46, 1 December 2009 (UTC)Reply

No idea. Is it a combination of: Cooperative Power Association (CPA) & United Power Association (UPA)? --71.39.129.209 (talk) 22:11, 1 December 2009 (UTC)Reply

It was a combination of the two names. C for Cooperative and U for United Power. Dj22g (talk) 15:20, 2 December 2009 (UTC)Reply

Intro

edit

The intro doesn't say why people opposed the project. GregorB (talk) 22:21, 1 December 2009 (UTC)Reply

Did Wellstone write a song about this?

edit

Thanks to whomever added the reference to the Dana Lyons song! To this editor: Is your mention of "Powerline" by Wellsone a reference to the book of this title or is it a reference to a song (or some other artistic work) that he created about the powerline? If it refers to the book, we should add mention of the book's other author, Casper. Dj22g (talk) 15:08, 2 December 2009 (UTC)Reply

As well, I don't know if I would include the book under a category dealing with art. Dj22g (talk) 15:10, 2 December 2009 (UTC)Reply

References

edit

The article would be improved if a Notes section for author name, date and pages numbers was added. No point in have one book ref repeated multiple times in the References section. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 09:46, 22 September 2011 (UTC)Reply

How many towers?

edit

I cannot find any mention of 20 towers being toppled (Where did you find this?). I can only find mention of 14 towers being toppled, so I changed the article to reflect this. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dj22g (talkcontribs) 08:26, 14 April 2013 (UTC)Reply
