I've produced such lists myself for local groups. I think it's important to keep producing them; sooner or later it may sink in with most people what the truth is. Not everyone will see the same list so putting them in as many places as possible, even on the same website, is a good thing.

Did anyone else find it funny that there is a Hummer ad in the middle of this article?

I didn't see any ads in Safari, or Firefox.

Awesome that this list includes the "want" to plug it in! The bad news is that the paragraph before that implies that all the battery charge in a hybrid comes from regenerative braking. Nope.
