Multiply just solar water heaters X the number of American homes. Reagan was a disaster for alternative energy.

I also remember many home designs you could find in the "Whole Earth Catalog" at the time that were super efficient, using the sun and a heat sink mass beneath that used practially no outside energy at all. The Reaganites laughed and poo-poohed all this mercilessly. If these had had a little government incentives, where would we be NOW, almost forty years later?
