The autumnal equinox is today and woodworkers in the northern hemisphere
who intended to solar heat their workshops are running out of time to
get the job done in decent working conditions...
...and woodworkers in the southern hemisphere would do well to get a
start on your solar project now.
If you're in need of project inspiration, I can recommend browsing
through http://www.builditsolar.com - a site just for those who want to
build their own solar systems.
(Wanting everyone to have a comfortable workshop.)

It would make a lot more sense to buy some of your panels wouldn't it?
I studied them closely and they certainly are an excellent
value....and the fact that they're proven to work makes me think that
the payback is quick..(depending where one lives of course.)

You can shill for me anytime and everytime the mood strikes. :-))
I make 'em good - and have worked on my design long enough that it'll be
tough for anyone to match...
...but (important word!) the sun will shine on everyone's panels more or
less equally - and I'm not reluctant to encourage those who can to build
their own and enjoy that free heat.

Direct solar air conditioning is a bit more difficult than heating and
will take a while yet, but I think I have a solution. It'll be a
pleasure to set one up for you when it's done...
BTW (should it make a difference) it'll be absolutely silent. :-)

And yet another reminder...
Get your annual prostate PSA checkup and live a better, longer life.
My father did not, and now he's dead because of it.

Heading that direction here in Tucson also. Getting to that time of year
where it's dangerous to travel to other places. One tends to forget that
they have weather in other parts of the country.

Heard an interesting piece on NPR this afternoon.
Seems the electrical grid in Iraq is so unreliable that they are
starting to power street lights with solar panels since street light
reduce violence.
Kind of ironic, a nation with enormous oil reserves is developing
alternate energy sources.

Just the opposite here in Baja, Morris...
I'm looking forward to cooler, less humid weather and LESS solar heating of the
shop. ;-]
