Al,
"Energy" prices, by which I suspect you mean oil, since you mention the price of gas, of all things, are NOT the key factor behind the growth of solar.
It's all connected. Oil, natural gas, coal, and the so-called "renewables" that are supposed to replace them.

High oil prices unarguably drive the sales of electric cars, which will then increase demand for electricity.

Natural gas prices will dictate how many natural gas appliances will be sold vs. their electric counterparts.
Get up to speed before you talk like a pedantic authority about a subject you don't seem to understand at all. I am trying to help with links and material, but it doesn't seem to penetrate that thick skull of yours.
You haven't addressed any of my points, but you DID prove that government is responsible for much of the growth in solar.

Inode was right. I did indeed lose you at "inflection point." ;-)
