LOL, Saltheart - look at your cell phone bill closely and see how they nickle and dime you to death! I HATE VERIZON.
My Dad looked into getting solar about 30 yrs back and he was told because of our area, it was too cloudy for it to be cost effective?!
May be the technology has chanced, things are more efficient and so forth, but the Feds cut the grant $$ that USE to pay for a percentage of it AND it takes a long time to re-cooperate the upfront costs.
Even if I cut down all my trees (just ONE left on the back - all the others have died on their own or the storms have knocked them over in the past 20+ yrs), I have my neighbors trees that block the path of the sun!
If I was in a spot that was open and sunny, I would be all over solar energy OR even wind energy.
