True, but not for long, so get over that response. Cost of solar tech is going down....

Year 1970 1975 1980 1985 1990 1995
Cost / Watt.hr $5.00 $2.50 $1.00 $0.50 $0.25 $0.25

Also, isn't our environment worth it?

Isn't our independence from the middle east worth it? Were still suckin on the teet of arab oil barrons in the year 2004!

Solar panels are expensive as hell, but there is something about not having to pay for electrity every month and being self sufficient that makes it seem worth it to me.
