on energy front check out a couple more

UTX United Technology -- only fuelcell vendor breaking even, sells to NASA
also airconditioners and elevators
(not quite a godzilla-cap, but big)

CPST Capstone Microturbine -- $40k microturbines power small buildings, put a string together and you have electrical independence
watch this microcap fly when Calif AND NewYork go dark

PLUG PlugPower -- has backing of General Electric
my fave among Ballard, PlugPower, FuelCell

I am doing more researching than investing
with energy costs dropping due to recession, aint investing yet
natural gas dropped over 5% last month, largest drop in history
of course from a higher previous month
this electrical sector will get lulled to sleepy
that is time to invest

with NewYork state adopted the identical utility provisions governing electrical generation and distribution, expect NewYork City to go dark sometime before long

expect all of Calif's neighbors to have the same blackout problems
the "grid" concept means shared power, shared misery, shared darkness

if/when the recovery ever happens, the electrical troubles of California will spread nationally

let the politicians control the dial, and we go dark
very simple rule
