The nation as well as the world will eventually have to go "Green". I have had solar electric since 2004. My electric bill last year was $6.23. Yes that's right for the YEAR. Not only is it a financial boon, the reason I did it is to reduce the TONS of carbon I was indirectly producing into the environment. Sooner or latter everyone will realize not only is it good for the environment but it PAYS as well. In 2004 the sales person (with a Masters degree by the way) calculated that if you pay more than $75.00 per month in electric it is a no brainer to install solar electric. That was with 2004 prices... The costs of diesel fuel is NOT going to go down. The sooner these trucking companies get on board the sooner they will start to reap the financial rewards. In 5 years they will be saying to themselves "Why did we wait so long"? The world will be a better place for sure as a result.

I keep sayin' with all the weird weather we are having 'Sure is a good thing we don't have global warming" Makes you wonder... hope its not to late.

OK I'll get off my soapbox
