I'm so starved for Ed Jew news I ran the numbers for how much money Ed could save if he went solar. 2450 28th Avenue** Roof Size: 1300 sq. ft. Estimated solar PV potential: 2 - 3 kW Estimated electricity produced: 3650 - 5475 KWh/yr Estimated electricity savings: $417-$626 per year Estimated carbon savings: 2722.9 - 4084.35 lbs per year

That's a great idea, actually, Beth. Not sure how it would support itself (or where it'd get the data), but I bet it'd be popular.

Damn -- and here I was hoping it would be a map to show where in the city the sun might be shining at any given moment. That could be very useful on quasi-foggy days.

On my Macintosh: Safari - the website crashes the browser every time Opera - the website says I live in the Pacific Ocean and no valid data is available Firefox - my persistence pays off and the site works as advertised Hopefully the solar panels themselves have been tested and work more reliably than their website.
