Solar Decathalon and the winner is...


I was down at the mall last week here in Washington D.C. where the Solar Decathlon was being held. This is a competition from universities around the world where students compete to build an energy efficient house. This years winner is Technische Universität Darmstadt who come from Germany. Which incidentally is going very heavy into solar power for energy use. Surprising to see that Al Gore did not show up I guess he's too busy after his winning the Nobel Peace prize for his power point demonstration to show up. Also missing was President George Bush who despite the fact that the Solar Decathlon was being held only a two minute walk from the back door of the White House never showed up. He went fishing instead or should I say fission.
