What are you, a total idiot? You have to clean everything. What are we supposed to do, wait for self cleaning solar panels!?!

I think we need to invent windshield wipers for solar panels! We'll call the company Wiper Solartronics! The IPO will come out at $20 per share. <g>

John Re....You have to clean everything

Isn't that what I just said. And wouldn't it be difficult to do, if your panels are on the roof, as you suggested they would be. That is why solar farms, in the desert, are likely to be where solar could catch on extensively, because there, if they are mounted on stands, slightly above ground, they will be easy to reach and clean, and they won't get dirty as fast, and enjoy the highest percentage of sun.

As to your other posts, it's not even worth responding.

Which other posts, or are you referring to the rest of the statements in the post.
