Maryvale, there is a policy on this website to not post whole articles, please trim it. Also there isn't a lot of point copying a headline, then pasting the exact article below it, then not making any comment on it. All you've done is shift the wiretap headline down 3 inches

As long as it doesn't affect reliability it can't be a bad thing.

Maybe Sarver's own way of trimming cost due to Barnes signing. LOL.

Solar is not that cheap, and over time, you do get the cost back. Its a good thing to do with so much sun.

Aint it a shame that it took until 2008 for a team named the suns, in the valley of the sun, to cover less than 20k sq/ft with cost effective solar panels?

it's almost inappropriate if the "SUNS" didn't go solar. maybe that should be our motto for the year "SOLAR POWER" !
