Solar energy is staring us in the face. I just made that up.

Fried retinas. What's the sun? Ray the Phone Man showed me this strange object in the sky yesterday. UFO? Stayed about 3 hours.

In '56 or '57, Jr. Scholastic Mag and GM came to my school for assembly pimping their car designing contest. Guy from GM sez "This is the way cars are gonna run in the future". Puts this little model car on the table. Turns on a sunlamp. Car runs across the table. Solar panel on the roof. 50 gucking years ago. No wonder GM is broke.
