btw, remember when we were discussing the solar-assisted A/C on a future Prius (or Camry)? I read recently that it would power ventilation when you car is parked in the sun. That, I think, would make it more useful than I had been thinking, as that greatly reduces the load required when you first get to your car in the summer.

Still... as a society, we are better off putting nearly all solar panels where they can be used all the time to maximize the payback. I have solar on a keychain and a wind-up radio, both of which will receive payback close to 1/10th of 1% of what it could provide in a different setting.
