Another quote I just read is if you cover 2 out of every 3 rooftops in the US with 20% solar panels you will produce more electricity than is now produced if all US electric production facilities were running at maximum...and of course the great thing about solar panels is you can produce where you consume. So if you throw in transmission costs I bet it would turn out to be around one out of every 2 roofs...

I've been watching them in the news. They weren't interested in the type of capital I have. Which I don't understand, because I am a nano investor. If I was gonna come back again, maybe I should do it as a giga investor. Except I'm gonna go see another part of the universe, and come back and check this place out in about 25 more lives. Should be starting to repair itself by then. It was a nice planet.
