[Rockhounds] Pyrite Solar

[Julie Siebel]

Kreigh:

Um. It wasn't a matter of bothering to look at the facts, it was being 
astounded at the statement, which contradicted everything we'd learned since 
kindergarten. Sorry if that wasn't obvious.

Thought maybe there was something there that we had missed entirely; after 
all, it's the Discovery Channel: They wouldn't lie to us, would they?
