Announcing newly functional technology! This is a breakthrough in which solar photovoltiacs produce 2 1/2 times more power and efficiency than standard technology. This is thoroughly tested and functional technology and the culmination of years of research. This should shed a whole new light on solar power. The premier green energy technology.
Ever since the days of my youth I've been fascinated by solar power. Man's first adventures into outer space always held my interest and the moon shots et al. The photographs of space technology and their photovoltiacs. Then I consider the status of solar power today and I must explore what has gone wrong. Of course one aspect of solar's image problem is the disgruntled neophyte who typically knows little of electricity and has a problem and in utter frustration is quite vocal about it. Public acceptance is a significant problem and much of which is based in ignorance and fear and un-willingness to change their way of doing things but these types of problems can usually be fixed when the price is right.
Often times I think of solar power as King Energy. I'll explain some reasons why. Well the main reason why I give solar power such a title as King Energy is because of potential cost effectiveness. Fact is that advanced societies must have quantities of energy at dirt cheap prices. First I'll repeat some data that I have found in U. S. government publications. The actual cost of silicon in solar panels is about $5. Actually the primary cost in solar technology is the supporting framework and hardware and this why the cost to manufacture a solar panel is about $100 which to me shows clear room for improvement. Yet these same panels can retail from about $400 to $600 or more. Why?
Well the first place one might want to consider pointing the finger of blame is the government itself with all the incentives to go green which actually have the effect of removing any need for cost reduction. Yet this still may not be the primary reason for the grossly inflated prices of solar technology.
Let's explore how the typical solar manufacturer approaches how to determine the pricing of their product. First they consider the typical home and what the energy cost of such over a 5 to 10 year period is. Then they consider just how they can get that money. Instead of the typical capitalist approach of just how can they provide the consumer with a better product at a cheaper price. This is what is really wrong with solar today.
The fact is that photovoltic manufacturing can benefit from the same economics any other electronic devices can. Such as automated manufacturing plants powered by their own product. The materials need for photovoltiac manufacture such as silicon are found everywhere on the Earth. Dirt cheap energy. The bottom line is the fact that their is no way that petroleum, even at long ago prices, can compete with this kind of technology. King Energy technology.

Light Bulb Fiasco
I went to my local Wal-Mart today and one of the things I had to get
was light bulbs. It was not a pleasant surprise. The sticker shock of
fluorescents that nobody wants. I thought that wasn't supposed to happen
for a couple of years yet! I thought. I was fuming and thinking about
this post so much that I even left behind a bag o' grub!
So let's talk about it a minute shall we. No this isn't going to be the usual gripe piece. Let's get into the real science about that fool light bulb law. This law has as a basis that the ordinary incandescent light bulb wastes energy. So let's discuss some elementary science briefly some of which some of you may already know.
First of all it is commonly accepted scientific fact that energy can neither be created nor destroyed true enough. Another lesser known fact is that all types of energy, no matter how, what, when or where always ultimately ends up as heat energy from combustion, friction and even noise. From this it can be stated that heat energy is one of the few things than can and is always produced with 100% efficiency! This is not to be confused with the concept of moving heat from one place to another which is a different matter entirely.
Now the incandescent light bulb more specifically. It is indeed a trait of the incandescent light bulb to produce more heat than light which is a result of having to heat a filament to such a high temperature before light emission occurs. It is this heat that some numbers person has arbitrarily labeled as "waste" and keeping in mind that heat production is directly proportional to the movement and quantity of electric current. Evidently this person hasn't considered the whole picture or is from Hawaii or some other perpetually warm place.
So now let's look at the rest of the picture. This gets really simple. Most light bulbs are found in buildings which of course must be heated in the winter time. It can indeed be stated with all gravity and truthfulness that an incandescent light bulb operating in a room that needs heating is without doubt operating at 100% EFFICIENCY!!!!
Consider the other most common form a heating in a building. These are usually heat pumps found in your yard. These not only produce heat but must also move it into a building. They have efficiency losses during their operation which can be described as heat carried away in the winter winds. When you remove the incandescent light bulb source of heat in such a building it is only going to increase the load on the heat pump. Nothing is gained.
This argument does get more difficult in the summer time but they invented daylight savings time didn't they. Problem solved. The only real way that energy can be saved with lighting is to reduce the use of daytime lighting in the summertime. If you really want to save energy then dry areas of the country should switch to evaporative cooling in the summertime instead of using a heat pump air conditioner. The savings are significant and more significant than a light bulb could ever be. It is in my case $5 verses about $100 a month not to forget that a new evaporative cooler usually costs about $500 verses more than $2000 for a heat pump. It's a no brainer.

Year In Review.
This has been a different year. First I will reveal that this has been a record setting year for audience to this website. Then however quite abruptly I received orders from God himself to begin restructuring and relocating. Yes indeed I'm a genuine seer and prophet and the visions and revelations here of late have been of such frequency and intensity of the likes that I haven't experienced since the days such saved America from the Clinton coup attempt which by the way created conditions and legal protections that are still quite active today despite the passage of time. So lately I have been quite preoccupied with the planning and implementation required for fulfilling my orders. This is the reason I give for my recent absence. He has not told me every reason why.
So in my curiosity as to the hidden whys I turned back to older revelations, many of which it has been some time since I discussed them. One that sticks out prominently is how eventually I will face almost daily attempts of assassination upon my person, sometimes under the conditions of being significantly out numbered. These are from visions I received and also it was spoken of in a prophecy from a beyond life experiences film I saw more than 30 years ago (more details can be found in the left column) which all say that these attempts will fail.
Like Samson in the midst of the Philistines. To date I have had a drone shine its targeting laser upon my person and twice a local Air Force Special Operations unit has flown aggressive air operations directly overhead. The message is clear and in direct fulfillment of prophecy showing to all just who and what they are. The devils, the anti-Christ and the beast steeped in rebellion against their Maker and his servant. So with nerves of steel and a stone faced resolve I stick to my purpose under conditions that would put others in the fetal position. Being a Messian I have talked with God however he never talks to Paulines so many of you will not understand this. I have seen the other side and I have no fear of it along with the certain knowledge of knowing that I am right. The prophecy says what it says but my desire is to fulfill the expectation of God and never to kill anyone.
So where might I go? Well the best way to say it now is I'll be anywhere and everywhere. One of the ideas I have considered is going to sea and for legal and security reasons, originating this message from international waters towards any nation that is convenient at the time instead of the current origin of from within the United States. Never the less I will never renounce my free born American citizenship because of the legal protections it affords, for now that is but I expect that eventually we'll all lose these protections about the same time. Another idea is I should relocate to 'gator territory. Ah yes the alligator! These would make excellent dragons for a moat would they not! And considering what the prophecy says they would perform the added benefit of cleaning up the debris and keep the armed night crawlers at a distance.
Never to forget this message of this website is the truth although I'll admit that sometimes my skill in delivering this message is lacking. Those who are Messian will have the thrill of being able to escape the terror of the beast but more important is the true message of God and his Son Jesus in that it is possible to have romantic love that lasts forever but you must believe in it and submit to his laws which, by the way, are never subject to the approval of man. Only male virgin can have female virgin or the madness and insanity of loss from which there is no escaping. So therefore I take great personal risk to save YOU from this insanity that would certainly come from ignorance of this vital message.
Yours truly,
Michael the Archangel
Merry Christmas!!
