Tesla Will Sell Solar Panels, Powerwalls At Home Depot (bloomberg.com)

Tesla is bringing photovaltaic panels and Powerwall batteries to U.S. retail giant Home Depot. According to Bloomberg, "The tech pioneer is beginning to roll out Tesla-branded selling spaces at 800 of the retailer's locations. The areas, which will be outfitted during the first half of this year, are staffed by Tesla employees and can demonstrate its solar panels and Powerwall battery." From the report: Lowe's -- the second-largest U.S. home-improvement chain, after Home Depot -- has also been in discussions with Tesla about selling its solar products, said people familiar with the situation. At some point, Home Depot may also offer Tesla's much-anticipated solar roof, said one of the people, who asked not to be identified because the deliberations are private. [The products] will be highlighted in high-profile displays, which are 12 feet tall and 7 feet wide. Some locations will be fitted with visual demonstrations that show how the products work.

    You and your Pastor get some things wrong about atheists.
    We have no desire to prove that there is no god. We bottom line don't care.
    So: I'm not traveling from star to star to seek your god and when I'm finished I tell you I did not find him.
    However, if you would provide the craft, I probably would do that, to have some nice journeys.
