  • May 1, 2009 - 12: 29 PM edited there is always conflict in historical documentation. for example, one might say that francis scott key wrote the star spangled banner. but what the whimsical history books don't say was that the melody / music for the star spangled banner came from another county. in regards to your references for solar panels, i have no doubt they are accurate but i am not interested in researching the issue at this time. however, the french reference i provided was to antione cesar becquerel in any case, what concerned me was the delusion that america had somekind of a foothold on science and technology of which we had to regain. but nothing was further from the truth, the ugly truth which has been buried by moralists. how can we be so dis illusioned as to think america was ever a leader in science and technology, when it wasnt even until the 1960's that we took the damn issue of ethnic discrimination "seriously". in regards to global climates as you had mentioned, we are responsible for the problem and we need to fix it. we also became china's biggest customer and therefore there contributions to the climatic change is ours as well. —  Betanews
