    I think you learned a valuable lession seeing all that is involved in the process, and the costs associated with them.

    Good video and great to see Americans turning to sustainable or renewable energy. It has benefits for the planet but ultimately when all the foreign oil runs out then at least those people who can generate their own electricity can keep the lights on when all about are losing their’s.

    Congratulations on being a true patriotic American and doing something to reduce our dependency on foreign energy sources.
