Sunshocked

Two years since its conception, my “modular solar” project is now up-and-running. Here’s how I did it and how I’d do it differently if I started today.

It may have been a false alarm but for weeks I couldn’t find any hardback Moleskines anywhere and was convinced they had been discontinued. I was also convinced that, not unlike learning to siphon gasoline, I needed to adapt to my harsh new post-apocalyptic softback reality.

With the dropping price and rising efficiency of nuclear power, I could no longer resist its amazing potential. By nuclear, of course, I’m referring to the fusion process deep within the sun generating spectacular amounts of energy that are then projected to Earth as sunshine. That other stuff is frickin’ scary.

Somewhere between reading “Design of Dissent” and trying not to vomit over Target Green, I wondered, “In this age of cynicism and corporate co-option, is there anything capable of authentic revolution?” The answer may surprise you!
