You hit the nail on the head..
If they cut back, less people would be calling the solar installers..
Less people would be going off the grid..

But, they are too shortsighted to understand they are going to drive down power use even more.
(Increase gas to $7 a gallon and increase bicycle use by %40)..

22.24 cents per KWH... Sure seems high. It has me looking at the
backyard and wondering about adding some real solar back there..

Make a real solar farm like this one..



The problem is, how high should it be off the ground? Snow is getting deeper by the year..
Turns out, 3 feet is no longer high enough..
