Lots of plans, just waiting for a Can Do person to take charge. Message 22630495 Message 23690857 Message 23625347 how many solar panels and windmills could the trillion or so dollars we have spent in Iraq have built? Based on Congressman John Murtha's daily cost figures of the Iraq War, here's how many homes could be electrified with solar: For the annual cost of the Iraq War ($343,000,000 per day / $125,000,000,000 per year), 3,557,000 homes could be electrified with 4kW solar electric systems each year, or 9,800 per day installed, free. And if people paid for them on 15 year payment plans, millions more could be financed. Message 24315476 Message 24260231
