The solar breakthroughs keep coming:
Researchers at Oregon State University have discovered how to create successful “CIGS” (copper, indium, gallium and selenium) solar devices with inkjet printing, reducing raw material waste by 90 percent and significantly lowering the cost of producing solar energy cells.The process could lead to high-performing, rapidly produced, ultra-low cost thin film solar electronics, according to the researchers. Instead of depositing chemical compounds on a substrate with a more expensive vapor phase deposition — wasting most of the material in the process — inkjet technology could be used to create precise patterning with very low waste.
If costs can be reduced enough and other hurdles breached, it might even be possible to create solar cells that could be built directly into roofing materials, scientists say, opening a huge new potential for solar energy.
I went home with the waitress
The way I always do
How was I to know?
She was with the "Indies", too
Ha!
Jon was blogging in Havana
He took a little risk
IPP called out his Independent title
George, get Jonny out of this!
Weiner was an innocent bystander
Somehow, he got hacked
By a bunch of no good Rethuglicans
And by the Democrats he was not backed
No!
By the Party not properly backed
Jonny is blogging in Honduras
He is a desperate man
Can't campaign on the past three years
Progressive Liberal Democrats — the sh-t has hit the fan
Ha!

Bill Gates disagrees with you regarding distributed power generation.
Given the choice between listening to Bill Gates or a blogger and policy wonk from NYC, Gates wins.
