Thanks for the note. That is inspiring!

Truthfully, though, Tea Partiers SHOULD be all about solar and community-based wind!

I’m from Cincinnati, and another cool thing is that southwest Ohio is a very conservative, tea-party area. If it can happen here, it can happen anywhere! Don’t be timid!!

My business can actually, drastically reduce the cost, of any energy source.

Could you explain how this might work?

I really doubt there’s enough storage in the area for the city to buy up wind/solar and store it for the “off” hours.

Would they be simply purchasing a given amount of wind/solar and then trading for fossil fuel electricity at times? Something like a homeowner does when they install enough solar panels to provide all the electricity they use and then trade with the utility company.
