because in early stages of every growth business, (I would love to hear an example where this ISN'T true)- those early businesses are recession proof. Here are some examples:

- Horrible tech recession in 01/02, GOOGs search business was on fire, in fact if you weren't working at GOOG you were not working in tech was the slogan
- "Homeland security" businesses during the same period, same story
- SIV financial related industry which was emerging at that time, same story

Solar is like that now, they are building at capacity, businesses like HP and Kohls are the customers, not some subprime wonk.

I don't know what you are talking about, "a depression"- my area isn't even in a recession- probably because of the alt energy boom, if you spend too much time on this thread you wind up thinking this is 1930 or something.
