Andy - check my sig. I'm in Iowa - and yes, I can put the panels on a
truck for shipment (BTW, I can fit 180 of the 4'x6' panels in a 40'
cargo container.)

I've also given serious thought to finding partners around the world
who can produce for local markets. The most recent prospect is located
in the Ukraine.

Smartass. You didn't check my web site, did you? Follow the link below
to see a teaser for a (maybe) solar-powered air conditioner. vbg
