Solar Panels Drain the Sun’s Energy, Experts Say

please do not post this some where some one will google this topic and use this as evidence.

They wouldn't do that. Wind technology has been around much longer than solar technology. So, while solar technology has some unforeseen consequences like pulling the sun, they have had the time to work out all the kinds with wind tech. Those windmills are fine-tuned pieces of technology.

The real question is, why are they still called windmills when they don't mill anything anymore? It concerns me that they might be milling something else, secretly. If it weren't something important or devious, they wouldn't be hiding it! They put a ton of them all in one place; what if they are milling the earth itself??

This brings up a completely new concern: solar wind mills.

What are you talking about? This is the best science thread ever! :yes:

Can we go back to an earlier point where the discussion was more easier to understand, so the choo choo doesn't go so far off of the tracks?

Yeah, I've had some concern about those too. It seems like you're wasting energy to have solar cells make the windmills go when there is no wind. It seems like a waste of power to use power to make power.

During the 60's we used to chant "power to the people". But now I know we were all wrong and should have been chanting "power from the people"- an exercise machine connected to the grid in every house and apartment. Everyone has to exercise a certain amount every day to unlock the doors and windows to their residences. People would be healthier, weight less and we'd solve global warming at the same time. Not to mention we'd free ourselves from the power company tyranny and save money as well. Win-win-win-win.

Ya know, aside from the part I highlighted, I think this is a really good idea and I'd bet it would become a major fad pretty quick.

You know what? I heard about the sixties, and I think electricity is just great. What we need is electricity and lots of it. Kudos on a great post!

I wish they'd sell exercise machines that make electricity. There must be a conspiracy against it by the power companies.

This really ought to be a thing.

Then the power really would be to the people, for the people and by the people!

I would put one right beside this danged computer. We could all exercise togehter just by communicating.

Just imagine the benefits! It would take off in places like California where people do exercise.

"Cut your power bill in half! Exercise and store power to use in your own home!"

You could put a generator in your back yard like the ones for water pumps where animals are used to pump water. But instead, try to get the whole neighbourhood over there. Instead of going for a jog, they could run in circles pushing the bar that runs the generator. Hang a few carrots (or Mars Bars) from strings just out of their reach. There is more power when a whole group is involved.

People all have magnets in their eyes too, and when they look at you, you know it because of the magnets.

Is that why we're so drawn to refrigerators?
And here I thought it was because there was food inside them. :yes:

Just think, when you're hungry, do you look at your fridge first or your cabinet?

Cabinets draw us too because they have metal handles, but obviously there is not as much metal there and it's usually like brass or something not very magnetic.

 

[Vinayaka]

Is this what they mean by having a magnetic personality ... somebody who is fixated on magnets?

No, it means that they're attracted by magnets. Keep magnets in your pockets, and you'll never be lonely.

Not Mars Bars out here in California. Carrots are OK. Very dark chocolate works great.

But they'd have to run in the opposite direction in Australia for it to work as well.
