II Chronicles 7:14 if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.

Dolan - Seen it long ago but still funny. BTW if the energy industry thought solar was feasasble (i.e. profitable) it would have bought the solar panel makers just like it bought the coal, oil, NG and uranium rights.
ExxonMobil et al don't really care how they do it...they just want to turn a profit. XOM has tens of $BILLIONS in cash reserves. If they wanted to be the largest manufacturer of solar panels they would be. Which would 't be a bad move for a oil/NG producer to make...if it were profitable to do so.
So yes: one can "control" the sun...just control the harvesting machines.

Funny when you consider all the goofy, what if things, that have been said here.
Also the funniest commercial I ever saw on TV on the morning of Jan.1st, 2000:

Funny stuff Rod. Just the same MSM desire to satisfy the public's lust drama whether it's really a part of the story or not. Years ago a hurricane was blowing into Texas. A local newsman reported a live update in great dramatic tones while standing in flood water up to his thighs. So funny: another station filmed him being filmed. His cameraman didn't even water above the soles of his shoes...the reporter found a hole to stand in. The film was shown on air in Houston once and never again after the station raised hell.

I remember a similar indecent from flooding in IIRC Saint Louis back during all the Mississippi floods in the late 1990's. Female report sitting in a canoe with someone slowly paddling her along, then two local waded past in the calf wader depth water towering over her. The water was actually only about 8 inches deep, just enough to float the canoe without scraping the asphalt of the street.
Here is a similar incident from The Today Show

BP opened a solar panel factory in Germany in the late nineties. Big media circus on day one. About 2002 or 2003 I called them because we needed a few panels for a small demonstration project, but they needed to be slightly smaller than BP's standard panel size. They didn't even bother to make an offer - we don't do non-standard sizes. I almost expected the guy on the other end of the line to fall asleep while talking to me. We then called a small manufacturer and had our panels two weeks later. BP closed the whole thing down a few years after that.
