Mildly Interesting

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

It's still just too unaffordable for many people. It would cost us over $10,000 to get panels installed and that doesn't include the multiple trees that would have to come down because they are really old oak trees with huge branches that stretch over the house and sometimes fall on the roof.

There should be much bigger subsidies. That wouldn't help us, but it would help a lot of others.
