    I think that is the reason that blogs.sun.com requires you to solve a simple math problem before you can post. The math proplem is simply written out in text.

    It may be 10% of office/personal power usage but that doesn't include industry (smelting/mining/chemical/refining/other) which uses a lot of power.

    Yes they do. But they are not designed for a 24/7 dutycycle. But systems like this will work wonders during peak usage periods during the summer.

  22. Re:Failure of the Bush administration on World's Largest Solar Array to use Stirling Engine · · Score: 2, Informative

    This is taking place in California...

    Signed Tuesday, the 20-year power purchase agreement, which is subject to California Public Utilities Commission approval, calls for development of a 500-megawatt (MW) solar project 70 miles northeast of Los Angeles using innovative Stirling dish technology. The agreement includes an option to expand the project to 850 MW. Initially, Stirling would build a one-MW test facility using 40 of the company's 37-foot-diameter dish assemblies. Subsequently, a 20,000-dish array would be constructed near Victorville, Calif., during a four-year period.

    It was a War. Shit happens. If you don't want to have bad things happen to your homeland make sure you can wipe out the enemy before they wipe you out.

    It wasn't our fault that the leadership of Japan refused to surrender till we droped two atomic bombs on them.
