Subject: [alt-beam] Solar power
Just anouther thought on solar power---
I saw a show a few years ago where the Japanese came up with an inexpensive
solar collector "a sun flower" that was just a partially silvered sphere
with fiber optic line to transmit the light throughout a 18+ story
building. They where growing some huge tomatoes with them.
