Good news on solar power
A prediction.
I'm seeing much the same thing. I think we're closer to a tipping point than a lot of people think, and it isn't going to come out a government "Manhattan Project." It's going to come from the same place computers and cell phones came from.
One minor difference of opinion: I don't think we're not going to meet all our power needs this way in the forseeable future. But we can make a pretty big dent.
