This was the rather momentous milestone that Bill McK talked about last week.
PV Solar is beyond "grid parity” and has broken the cost barriers to being much
cheaper than “conventionals”
I also love Bill Mck for saying (you just sent this to me)
And what will make it toughest may be the (very American) assumption that we
have to endure the anxiety by ourselves, in our own heads. I’ve found the
simple solidarity of movements at least as useful as the opportunities for
action that they provide; just knowing that lots of other people are at work on
the same problem is a solace, and a goad to keep working.

The marriage of ignorance and force always generates
unfathomable evil, an evil that is unseen by perpetrators
who mistake their own stupidity and blindness for innocence.
