    well I kinda wondered about how it would work so well in NY cuz some buildings or in the shadow of others. Second, if this gets implemented and than a couple days of no sun pop up wouldn't it stress out the grid a bit more than normal

    It's bound to fail eventually anyway. NY will be lucky not to even have the illusion of this working out. God's law does not permit the unnatural products of science. So long as this kind of power is the product of science and not His Will, I think we're pretty much going to have to stick to burning the timber, coal and fossil fuels He has given us.

    A good man would write his power company to warn of a boycott should this sort of thing be deployed.

    Sir, it is Sunday.

    Today is not a day for battling and puerile banter. And never is it a time to make jokes of parasites where He is concerned. If anything, we are parasites unto Him. For without Him, we are like so much dust. Without Him, we are not saved. Without Him, we are nothing.
