I believe I've woken up in an alternative universe. Much bad stuff is still very bad, but our STATE DOT is actually RECOMMENDING Protected Bike Lanes on state highways that are important transportation corridors through our city. I almost swallowed my tongue listening to the presentation!

If you can do solar, do solar. This is the May report for my 3.6kW system (abt 44° N lat), 8 bifacial panels, east-west facing, on garage w/ some shadow bc trees are pretty much my ac (in other words, not the ideal). Use includes house & transportation ('22 Bolt EV). Next year, credits might end.
