New England carbon trading

Nine northeastern states are finally getting ready to agree an accord that will establish mandatory caps on CO2 emissions from power plants and a market to trade emissions permits, which BBC sees as a rebuke to Bush's devil-may-care attitude to global warming. At the conference I went to there was criticism of this accord because it supposedly doesn't restrict electricity imports from Pennsylvania, which is not a party - does anybody know if this is true?

In a development related to our name, Copernicus' bones have supposedly been found in a cathedral graveyard now part of northeast Germany.
