	Montreal Alouettes at AllExperts
		The original Alouettes franchise folded after the 1981 CFL season, but were immediately replaced by a new club for 1982, the Montreal Concordes, owned by Canadian mogul Charles Bronfman, who also was the founder of the Montreal Expos baseball team.
		The team was the most successful of the CFL's American teams both on the field and off, garnering persistent fan support in the Baltimore area and appearing in the Grey Cup in both seasons (losing in 1994, winning in 1995).
		The new Alouettes franchise played their first two seasons at Olympic Stadium, but attendance in the domed stadium was very poor and the long term prospects for the franchise were once again uncertain, until a twist of fate revitalized the floundering club.

	IFC Environment - Poland Efficient Lighting Project (PELP) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
		At the time of PELP’s design, the Polish CFL market was beset by two problems: Polish consumers’ awareness of CFLs and their benefits was low, and the lamps were up to 30 times more expensive than ordinary incandescent lamps.
		CFL penetration increased from one in ten Polish households owning at least one CFL prior to PELP, to one in three, a year after the program.
		Total impacts were calculated by using the estimate of kWh savings per CFL derived from the direct impact analysis, and projecting increased CFL sales in Poland resulting from PELP from the start of the program until several years in the future.

		As best I can tell from the CFL's web site, it appears that the original Alouettes, the Concordes, and the "new" Alouettes are considered to be one franchise for historical purposes, despite the name changes and the nine-year absence of a team in Montreal from 1987 through 1995.
		The team name was changed back to Alouettes for the 1986 season, but the team folded again just before the 1987 season was to begin.
		One other design not yet shown here was used apparently during the 1974 season only; it featured a logo very similar to, or perhaps identical to, that shown on the "1975 - 1981" helmet shown above, but with the logo worn at the front of the helmet rather than on the sides.

		In 1994, Doug Flutie threw for 48 touchdowns and in 1997 for 47.

		With the continued success in the regular season and playoffs during the 1970's, as well as expansion of the NFL into Tampa Bay and Seattle, Grant and GM Jim Finks were not able to replenish the aging veterans on defense with top level college talent.
