I encourage each of you to Google his data reports, and look for websites and forums where people are BELIEVING his crap data, and refute it.

I've already subscribed to a Google news alert for articles that cite "CNW Marketing" and depending upon the content, send a 'letter to the editor' correcting the article citing independently verifiable facts and data. I often share my finding with folks in the Journalism section. But I don't mind a helping hand.
In the case of the Forbes article, I probably won't send a note because "CNW Marketing" plays a minor part in the article about Plug-in hybrids. There was a leading paragraph that showed 190,000+ hybrid registrations, which pretty much blew "CNW Marketing's' claims out of the water. BUT don't let my reluctance hold anyone back.
You might do a search in the Journalism group for "CNW Marketing" and see some of our past efforts. I'm never one to turn down help or another good idea.
