Talking your usual drivel I see.
I export more power than I consume. I have a solar passive house and I
have no fuel bills at all.
The net financial benefit of my house is almost $6000/year compared
with a standard house.
But we are more advanced in Europe.


Advanced??? Then why do your automobiles pollute the air?


Fact: 99.999% of automobiles licensed to go on the road in
Europe, since 1970, _HAVE NOT_ been allowed on the roads of
North America. Reason... they don't meet the California/USA/
Canadian emission regulations!- Hide quoted text -

There a virtually no American cars anywhere but America. Why do you
suppose that is?
