Keeping planned obsolescence, annual “improvements” poor quality, ill fitting parts, inconsistent manufacturing process,labor disputes, drunkenness on the job, drugs on the job, labor disputes, racial problems, medical claims follies, injury claims follies,recall follies, coffee breaks, you know, all the foibles of American manufacturing out of the process will keep government and Union officials slaving day and night in highly paid positions in air conditioned offices, and suburban homes to match!( Private schools for upper-crust offspring too!) Even the “Cadillac” craze might be revived, if we can pry their fat under exercised asses out of BMW’s and the like! China and India are about to kick ass! Our fat indolent lazy over fed, soft American ass! We must get vulture capitalism to acquire these rigs at better than half the cost to the government from Asia, and let Michiganites go goddamned fishing on welfare checks! They had their chance at bat. struck out! were given another chance, gave us the “Volt!” copy of the BYD from China plus a big heavy sheet mental body, not like the “Aptura” which is what we need, and now they want to fvck up our last chance, the Solar Energy thing! I say no! subcontract it out to China and India, and give the change to Michiganites in food stamps!

I am a Certified Energy Engineer, and a 16 year member of the Society of Automotive Engineers.

That said, it is urgent that such developments as the Suncatcher come to market immediately. I remember the

big dishes that we had early in the TV reception stage. A dish no larger than those will not need permits, and should pass all Zoning and HOA rulings.

I want one now! I am proposing small Residential windmills and solor dishes. Keep the cost down, and

benifits up. Bob Lynch.

By the looks of them, they will be probably shipped in some sort of kit form and assembled on site. No doubt a token plant in the USA but the bulk of components from the obvious cheaper places.

Let’s just hope all the stamping dies and steel do not come from Asia as is very popular now in the “American” automotive business.

However I doubt they will be making these sun catchers at a rate of one every 60secs like cars. But it would be a great way to stimulate the economy.

Where are the sun catchers assembled? It’s seems silly to put them together in MI and ship them all the way to AZ.
