In that regard, neither solar or wind will EVER compare to those other sources for reliability and availability.

Hawk, that is the most ignorant statement I've heard in a while. How can you categorically say that something will never happen? Everything is possible. All new tech is expensive and once it becomes pervasive, it becomes cheap. All new tech has problems that have to be solved. For intermittent energy sources like solar and wind, storage is that problem. Already, they have solved it, and yet, you seem to be ignorant of that. I've seen these cycles happen a thousand times. It's the natural evolution of any tech. Why do you deny the obvious? It's becoming tedious talking to you, because you are denying the most obvious things. If I have to explain to you that the sun will rise every morning, then that is a tedious conversation to me.
