LOL Teq someone once told me there was no such thing as a dumb question, and no you didn't answer it. I was curious as to who the independent company was that did the research on the savings of BSi and LPD? As in UL Underwriters Laboratories etc. Your thoughts on the second part of my post are well taken, and you're right probably was a dumb thought.

Speaking of percentages, solar has reached a milestone this year. 1% of the world's power is provided by solar. Solar is following the same curve as computing speeds did. Doubling about every two years. Or the curve for the Human Genome project. The Human Genome project at 7.5 years was at 1%, and considered a failure, but then the growth was exponential, 1% became 2%, then 4%, then 8% and in the following 7.5 it was 100%. As for computing speeds, my cell phone has more power than computers the size of big buildings did when I got out of high school.

If solar continues to follow this curve, and it can with technology like Natcore's, we will have 100% of the world's power needs supplied by solar by 2027. That's a mere 14 years! Nascrazy, Kungfu, some food for thought when you guys are feeling a bit frustrated at slow progress being made now.
