11. It would probably be more economical to put your solar in the desert...
... and ship the power to Santa Monica.

It's bad for the desert getting bulldozed over like that, but then your solar machine doesn't have to deal with salt spray, diesel soot, vandals and thieves, seagull and pigeon poop, marine layer cloudiness, etc.



You live in Santa Monica? Santa Monica always makes me sort of sad. A lot of very interesting people were forced out by much less interesting people with empty heads and too much money. I got busted for sleeping in my car there once, so maybe I'm bitter.

But then again maybe I shouldn't talk. The last time I visited I did have money and stayed a few days at the Fairmont Miramar.

:P
