It seems to me that these solar cells will very quickly grime up being next to a freeway. This will drastically reduce the efficiency of the cells and thus they must be cleaned, alot. More than likely the only way to do this will be with some kind of detergent or caustic cleaner. What is your proposal for cleaning hundreds of thousands of square feet of solar cells with toxic chemicals without totally wrecking the environment ? What are your calculations for the cost of doing this ? > We can serve inmates mostly vegetarian meals and save millions, reduce > pollution and greenhouse gasses, prevent high blood pressure and > cholesterolemia > which costs us millions in medical costs. This would be great if the inmates were cows or caterpillars. Homo Sapiens needs meat to survive according to the current theory of human evolution. I guess if you don't believe in current evolutionary theory then it isn't worth arguing. > NO STADIUM TAX WITHOUT A VOTE. > Much more at my web site I say no stadium tax PERIOD.
