Does anyone on the Forum know who this person is?  I see the rather flippant answer to Brian Ellis's posting below (which I thought was fantastic and passed along to others who might be interested).

I tried to contact this person direct because of interest in another of the IPC forums, and got a nonsense answer and a competitor's data sheet back.  The answer was totally unrelated to my question, but signed " J.T. ROBEMSHORT -
RED LINE FARMS".   Does that give anyone a clue?  Any other experience with this IPC forum "contributor"?

  As it happens, I'm ¼-way through developing a web site devoted to the 
 problem of waste. It may be published in a couple of weeks or so. In the 
 meantime, have a look at http://www.cypenv.org/worldenv/files/tridel.htm<http://www.cypenv.org/worldenv/files/tridel.htm> 
  - this describes the most modern implementation of a technology first 
 developed in France in the 1920s and is used in odd spots in various 
 countries. In the USA, I know Baltimore does it although I believe thei
r 
 plant is fairly old and polluting. There are probably many others. In 
 contrast, Toronto ships many tens of tonnes of their garbage daily to 
 Wayne County, Michigan, where it is landfilled at enormous cost to their 
 citizens and enormous quantities of emitted pollutants.
  China is building some low-pollution waste-burning power stations near 
 the big cities (Beijing, Chongqing, Shanghai etc.). Anyway, is it a sop 
 to the USA that China produces more waste, when it has >4x the 
 population? Surely the criterion is the per capita production, where the 
 USA (and Cyprus) have the doubtful honour of being world champions!
