In 1978 then POTUS Jimmy Carter had a series of Solar Panels installed at the White House to heat the water.. At that installation he uttered this prediction… “In the year 2000 this solar water heater behind me, which is being dedicated today, will still be here supplying cheap, efficient energy…. A generation from now, this solar heater can either be a curiosity, a museum piece, an example of a road not taken or it can be just a small part of one of the greatest and most exciting adventures ever undertaken by the American people.””

A few years latter Saint Regan dismantled the working solar heaters and the DoE’s Renewable Energy efforts with this stunning bit of tripe…”It hasn’t produced a quart of oil or a lump of coal or anything else in the line of energy.”

Ah yes, and how has that worked out for us Bonzo?

So where are those old Solar Panels? Glad you asked…..
