wow.

This is an article about a Solar/Hydrogen powered househould. Built by a civil engineer with his own time and mostly his own money (although several grants were involved). It gives me hope for alternative fuel sources - but it also makes me sad that we're still so far away from these ideas being the "norm".

now public

Anyone familiar with NowPublic.com?

After a quick perusual of the site (like, maybe 1.5 minutes) I deduced it's a "news" reporting site that takes submissions from just about anyone who registers for an account. The stories are broken out much like in a traditional newspaper - world news, local news, areas of interest. The format is bloglike in that readers can leave comments. There are some citations.

I received a request today to post one of my photos along with this little story.

Thoughts, opinions, and general ramblings are welcome and encourged.
