Not quite. What must happen at the "Main Panel" is the bond between
Neutral and Equipment Ground. That bond MUST be done where power
enters the building, and it MUST be the ONLY connection between
Neutral and Ground anywhere in the system. There must also be an Earth
Connection (that is, a driven rod) at that point. ANY building can
have as many EARTH connections as you like, and they can be connected
to the "Green Wire" ANYWHERE you like, but they MUST all be bonded
together.
"Equipment Ground" in the context of power systems is the steel
enclosures of electrical panels, and of the "Green Wire" throughout
the building.

I think we're caught in semantics and interpretations. Jim (K9YC) has
the correct interpretation, BUT as he says, it' the GROUNDS that are
all tied together.
I believe Panels and sub panels are grounded ONLY at the main panel.
Sub panels have their grounds run to the main panel which is the only
ground for the panels
