You're right, Danny. It's an editorial that views something negatively, but it's less about Al Gore, and more about Current.

I've never really hidden my feelings about Current or Gore, but I realize as I'm writing this comment that lot of that is on my own site, not here. So you may not know that.

I never asserted that Al Gore made the statement, though. My indictment of Gore has to do with the ego-induced delusions of grandeur that he clearly has bled over into his corporate culture.

Wow! What a hit piece on Al Gore!

I cannot really find anything on your post where Al Gore valued the company at $2B. One of the investors valued it at such and that investor doesn't to happen be Al Gore.

"On the other hand, you have a couple companies, one headed up by a fellow with one of the biggest egos in the world (and thatâ€™s before heâ€™s been showered with every award imaginable),..."

Why is this necessary? This is the worst post I have seen on Mashable. It is a commentary meant to blast Al Gore. Did "The Inconvenient Truth" tick you off? Fine, global warming is a myth but let's put some objectivity here.

You can't prove that Al Gore himself made the $2B valuation. This is merely an attack on him.
