I'd love to know if it's going to be an open casket funeral.
If it's closed casket or the family claims they quietly had him cremated, then I'm going to officially believe he's alive and well and living out his days in South America.
Not trying to be a tinhat conspiracy theorist, but the timing and circumstances of his death are just too convenient. A little TOO convenient. Lord knows he's got enough friends in high places to help him pull this off. He's probably not dead, just "relocated".

Bring out your dead. Bring out your dead.
He's not dead.
He will be tomorrow.

Patrick, when you find it, start a new thread on it. The commercially viable silicon panels today only convert about 15% of the incident light to electricity. The rest is lost to heat or reflected.
I am not up-to-date on "the latest" research and newest tech. So it would be interesting to get a read on the EU stuff.
The typical installation then loses some additional power taking direct current DC to AC (inverter). This is done to put power out in the form that all of your appliances want.
Mobile installations sometimes skip the inverter (RVs, etc.) But most DC appliances tend to be a bit more expensive.

Ding Dong the bastard is dead. Que Bono?
Interesting idea that his death was faked! Equally conspiratorial would be that he was hit (so he couldn't talk in exchange for less time, or so Bush didn't have to pardon him, or who knows?)
Some folks lose their will to live when they are staring down too dark a tunnel. This whole thing must have been very stressful on him so maybe he just croaked.
Still, can't help but think that Bush, having nothing to lose as a lame duck, would have just pardoned his ass on the way out.
I guess, like the way Porter Goss described his sudden retirement from the CIA, "It will have to remain one of those mysteries."

You're right there. What's Bush's total? 50-150,000?

" Bush doesn't hold a candle to Clinton for suspicious deaths on his watch."
I'd take the 2 or 3 suspicious deaths under Clinton over the 100k civilian Iraqi and 2500+ US soldier non-suspicious deaths any day.

Get over Iraq Gary...sheeesh
I can really only speak for myself, but I’d guess that people like Gary (and myself) will get over Iraq when our troops are home and there is stability there.
However, the maimed civilians and troops, and the families of the dead, will never get over Iraq. A needless war to say the least, and if you haven't recognized that by now Jody, then I guess you never will. Rose-tinted glasses comes to mind, or even more so, blinders.
The tree-huggers have taken over this state.
Jody, aside from some areas like Orange County, California has always been liberal. That is because, despite the images of Hollywood and such, Californians are intelligent open-minded people on the whole.
But I would say that, wouldn’t I.

"Get over Iraq Gary...sheeesh!"
Yeah, why do we keep focusing on what Hitler did to the Jews? He did great things for the German Economy before the war took it's toll!
Come on Jody. War is a big deal. The biggest deal. A war based on lies and false pretenses is a crime against humanity and Bush is still lying about it.
The criminal needs to be in prison, not office. The only thing protecting him from that fate is that his party is in the majority and the power structure won't let us think of him like the criminal that he is and will be found by history to be, along with Cheney and others.
You pull over some hippy who's drunk and ran over somebody's dog, he's going to jail.
You pull over Dick Cheney who's drunk and ran over somebody's dog, it's a different story whether you think it will be or not

And then Ann Coulter can write a book calling them a bunch of whiners.
