Good luck getting any answers here. This group mostly seems to be for
people who hate mountain bikers. I think it is the people who moved to
california drive there SUV to a park and then complain because people
are ruining it with their mountain bike.

On the topic of solar, I seem to remember there being a solar news
group but I can't remember the name. I used to read it fairly often
and there was a lot of people who knew alot about solar. Photovoltaic
and passive. There is also wind power. I have a magazine called wind
power swomething if I come across my copy I will give you the info.
That had a lot of "natural resource" things for energy in the back,
including a fair amount of solar. I've known a few people who have had
solar arrays. If I owned my own home that's the way I would go. Witha
wind generator too.

Good luck
