<dthomasdigital> Thank's to tritium for ordering, with out him I'd have nothing for my presentations.
<beanie77> I heard a solar guy say that is is 10x cheaper to buy low power appliances than for a solar system. The data point is about 5 years old.
<tritium> So, now it's just a waiting game.

<tritium> She's a trip ;)
<gcleric> tritium: that's bad...
<tritium> gcleric: hehe, I know.
