re: What happened to the hole in the ozone layer?

Another intelligent post. Obama gave money away like it was a dollar at a titty bar to push clean energy. One only needs to look at the opening dates of many solar/wind companies. We used to see EACH BLADE have its own oversized semi hauling it on an almost weekly basis. I think the treehuggers finally caught on to just how little in totality they helped and it seems that solar farms are now in vogue.

I visited home a few weeks ago and observed orange tape (like police crime scene tape) around a field. It's a small area so if you know the right 2-3 people you know just about everything. That land owner/farmer sold his land to a dollar farm company for 10x what the going rate is for farm land. I suspect there'll be a discussion in 30 years about losing crop growing farm land to solar farming.

In all fairness FWIW, if I was building a new house I'd invest in having solar panels on the roof. In the long term I think on a micro level that it makes good economic sense (especially if your local energy provider purchases your excess power.)
