    If you think Musk is rich, you are only partially right. He is extremely rich by common standards but his money is based on shares he has on a carmaker with 85+ p/e ratio. It's a cult, not rational market pricing. Di you know that Tesla has never paid any dividend? And won't pay any in the...

    Real fireworks? You're probably right on the description. They are going to burn down the US institutions like Mao burnt books. They are going to start a revolution.

    the production site is by the West coast of Morocco. Half of it will be wind, half solar. The West coast of Morocco has very consistent wind speed and sunshine records. Water desalination should also be easy enough being by the sea. Recent progress has reduced the cost of desalination a lot.

    I really have difficulty figuring out where your hatred of Ed Miliband comes from. Did it matter to you what he eats or doesn't eat? As for the money, I am not sure how much has been spent but it can't be much until it buys into some commercial projects. GBE is only an investment vehicle like...

    Saneagle's installation is more representative of possible projection. Inverters are not expensive and dead easy to replace. SW's situation is different. He rents his house from the council. With hindsight, the council should not have installed his solar panels. If you involve too many...
