Las Vegas SUN: Will anyone see the (solar) light?
Fred Pilot sent this story about how HOAs are not exactly jumping on the Al Gore eco-friendly bandwagon:

Even as a wave of green washes over America, as Al Gore wins an Oscar and Congress talks climate change, the sun gets so little respect. Even though it's been powering satellites and calculators for decades, solar technology is still a hard sell. Just ask Janie Lynn, president of Las Vegas -based Lighting and Electronic Designs Inc. - the company that designed the solar-powered running lights on the Luxor. Her company is trying to persuade valley homeowners associations that use costly decorative gas lamps to replace them with solar ones.
