I've done some research on solar and todays technology actually has a disadvantage in areas with extreme heat. The panel is somewhat sensitive to extreme heat and does very well in more temperate zones. ( according to the articles which I cannot remember who wrote)

I do not have solar panels but I need to put a new roof soon and I been reviewing details since the 30% credit was proposed.

There are less then 10,000 homeowners in the state with residential solar and payback still looks like a bitch.

Market is selling hard off Obamas speech.

In my experience, the time period between March and May has been toughest during recessions due to fact it is hard to make money and a lot of tax bills come due.

My thinking this quarter and next look as bad as 4Q08.
