I keep remembering that old movie (made in 1976 )called "Network". those here old enough may remember the popular tag line from it .."I'm mad as hell and I'm not going to take it anymore".. those here that haven't seen it, try finding it somwhere or download it. its worth watching

I keep wondering about the wind power thing. Seems to me like we have a good breeze MOST of the time. But when I look on the windpower maps it says we aren't windy enough. This confuses me. I went so far as to contact one of the windpower companies and they told me the same thing. I wanted to put up a turbine in my yard to pay for my pool filter but they say no go.

Solar..... Sounds great to me but it's very expensive. We need innovation in this area. Cheaper panels with a higher conversion rate that last longer. I checked on this option too.
