Thanks, I wondered where the USA learnt to do that.
Made a fine art of it now, haven't they?

I wish. If they are making a profit in war, why is our debt load increasing
so fast?



No, my favorite one was the "Blood for Oil" screamers.

Since we aren't getting the oil and our prices are now on the rise the
same group is now claiming that it was all a plot to raise oil prices so
"they" could reap huge profits. See how no matter what happens there is
still something to bitch about and it is always "their" fault. Sort of
like the Y2K hysteria.

Sorry Anthony, but I think this is quite wrong. Solar PV requires a very
large infrastructure to build, and a substantial infrastructure to
maintain.

I don't know about that. Solar PV can be used in any size from digital
watches to powering hotels. [snip]

The point is not whether or not they can be used, but whether or not
they can be used economically and profitably.

Oh, if that was the point then it's already been decided. Right now,
solar PV is not economical or profitable except in niche applications
not connected to the grid. Tomorrow... who knows? It does seem to be
getting cheaper all the time.

This, of course, has nothing to do with the question of "Is the
profitable use of solar PV limited to big mega-corporations?"
I like it that the Dutch solar car went cross Australia in 3 days or so

with an average of over 100 km/h last year.
Now here is a very sensible application in a suitable 'solar' climate.
Those photocells were the same as used by the European Space Agency.
I would love to have a few square meters of those to play with.

And now that debt is so high, money is scarce so interest rates will go up.

Well, Jim, my favorite is the fact the oil companies are reaping super
profits and able to claim it has something to do with a minor adjustment in
the price of foreign oil. Certainly nothing they are doing to adjust their
company profits. Really! Ignore the man behind the curtain. Yeah, sure!

Nothing authoritive. Just old news editorials criticizing Ike, but
not specific enough to say exactly what was done and when. It
wasn't much of an issue then. Just needed to be done.

While I'm all for using more renewable resources, and especially
ones that are environmentally friendly, it doesn't make sense to
cause yourself financial pain doing so. It makes sense to buy the
must fuel efficient vehicle that fits your needs but not to overspend
simply because it's a little better on the gas mileage.

It's not a "little" better, it more than double - 50+ MPG compared to 25!

[snip]

Surprisingly enough some SUV owners actually need the SUV at the time of
purchase, I personally drove through snow 70cm deep on a regular basis prior
to my recent job change. Just because the people in southern California
don't need it doesn't mean no one does.

Surprisingly enough, many of those people who bought a big Ford
Expedition or GM Yukon could have got by with a lot smaller, and hence a
lot more economical SUV. ALso, there are vans, too, with a much better
gas mileage. Surprisingly enough, it's not about whether or not it's a
SUV or a truck or whatever, it's whether or not it's a gas guzzler.

And this becomes your decision or business exactly how?

Sourcing INTO the power grid is also supported in Arizona. Apparently
there are a few customers here who produce more than their own
consumption and get PAID every month. (Not difficult at all if you
own at least an acre of property.)

How do they regulate the current they draw? I mean since the capacity
will vary.

Now a wind generator would be cool, there are many windmils of huge size
here,
one next to my house (100m or so), a BIG one that replaced 5 smaller
ones...
It is on the coast, and it is always windy here...
How big is that thing?
JP
==============================
As I reported in a previous message its rated capacity is only 150 Watts.
6 Blades , 900 mm diameter, max rpm approx 250 , 3 phase generator ( DC
through one and a half standard 25 Amperes bridge rectifiers)
The thing sits on a street lamp post with an extension (approx 8 metres
above ground.
