I didn't say it was totally free, did I?

Yes about tax payers, am I'm one of them. Been paying those taxes for 60 years - to support welfare programs, free health care for others while I pay cash for mine. Free heat for others while I cut firewood to heat my own place. Free house improvements to others while I fix mine myself, etc. Technically, much of the "alternative energy" money comes from the rates people pay to their power companies. NY incentives are only allowed in areas that have power companies that allow it. And, those power companies charge every customer a fee for "alternative energy." Those fees goe into the incentive programs.

So sorry chief, but I'm not thanking you for my energy system. I designed it myself and did most of the actual work myself. It was NO easy task to actually save any money using incentives. The REAL story on these incentive programs is - they are "make work" programs and just one step closer to the USA becoming totally socialized. They are set up to force people to use workers who charge around twice the the normal rate for such work. I figure I've paid as much taxes as you, and have gotten very little in return for it.

Today's Featured Article - Third Brush Generators - by Chris Pratt. While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point ... [Read Article]
