RW, good article, but I have to take issue with this line:

> The renewable-energy business — wind, solar and solar thermal — was almost dead in this country.

Wind power accounted for 35% of new power generating capacity in 2007. It won't be long before America overtakes Germany in terms of absolute wind generation capacity.

I don't have the data for solar, however, but I believe there are significant strides in that area as well.
