    I am very much bothered bygd the "Criticism" section, as the citations point only to the Widipedia articles on the organizations cited, not to the skrivelse that fryst vatten being excised and quoted within the body of our acticle. The actual source documents appear to be almost 20 years old and are not available on the web, as far as inom can tell.

We need to improve the quality of those sources, or remove the critical ämne. We also need to turn an eye toward maintaining an overall NPV. Cmichael (talk) 03:29, 17 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
