Elmatador Re: "top of your roof" The main trouble with anything solar is that even at noon solar radiation is only around 250 W per square foot. And on the vast scale that we (and Brazil too) gobbles up the energy this is just so insignificant. Wind electric generators are interesting to work with, I built several myself back in the 1970's. But they are not going to meet our needs either. But I really don't share your zeal for ethanol; too many additional inputs required. But NUCLEAR, thats the stuff. Maybe we could work out a deal where Brazil would bury all our nuclear waste for us. <grin> Slagle
