#2 Phoenix will hold a summit on solar energy and other energy issues. Al "The Fraud" Gore will speak. I am now making other plans. The environmental issues are real, solar is a big part of the answer here in AZ. The industry is still hitching its wagon to nutcases like Gore. This make it more political than science. The industry needs to evolve into a disaplined science and not some political/hollywood popcorn festival. I would pay to hear the scientific community, Hawkins, or someone with credability speak and take this industry from the tree hugging/moonbat stage into a solid industry.

#3 I agree with Frank G., Gore should be taxed 90% on the first billion and 97% there after. It's just plain wrong for him to profit so from causing poverty and misery to so many of us. With a tax rate like that, watch him John Galt himself out of the climate change scare business. Now that would be good for the economy and the environment, too.

#4 this company he invested in though, very interesting, a freind of mine developed a similar device whereby the amount of energy coming to you from the grid is regulated to take in only the amount you need and no excess, saving you the consumer m oney on energy and sending the rest on along the grid to the next guy.

#5 Hell yes, tax him. I'm sure there's some "obscene profits" in there somewhere...

#6 I don't like Al Gore but he is investing in usable technology. That's capitalism at work. If he doesn't expect to make a proffit, why invest?

#7 Al and his investors are using the Cap-and-Trade debacle, and green subsidies to shift economic models to their firms, all which can't compete on a level field. They get rich and you pay the increased costs and taxes for a theft plan
