My friend Amy – yes, the same one – asked me some more questions. Some of this stuff is just not what I would normally write about, but hey. Content is content when you’re getting through the night.

She asked (again via Facebook):

Will solar power REALLY save you $$?

I haven’t the faintest clue. First off – don’t get on me about the environment here. We’re talking simply about dollars and cents. Not environmental impact.

And after reading about it – I have no idea what to conclude. There seems to be a debate about the whole thing. Basically – you won’t save money until you double what you spent to set it up. And you’ll spend a lot. I’ve gone around and around, and I can’t figure it out. Maybe my brain cells are just depleting. Here’s an argument FOR it and here’s an argument AGAINST the money thing.
