Self-installed solar

Is it true you can kit a whole house with solar, self installed, wired-in for $200 as some of the sites are claiming?

Sure, but don't expect an award for it. It would be a nice demonstration but not a great use of your time or money. Better you buy a timer for your water heater or put some insulation around it or seal up your windows better. Then you would have more money left after paying your heat bills and you could do a real project.

Investing in Human Capital is the most rewarding; free-market utilization of Human Capital is the least expensive path to success.

Don't whine about problems without thinking of a free-market, economically rational, and socially pragmatic solution.

NO.

THere are a million energy-related scams and come-ons.

In the multi-level marketing era, this same thing happened and you got a booklet or pamphlet ot worse, just some Zeroxed sheets with unitelligible instructions for buying materials and a resource list (some of which they got "Referral fees" for supplying).

Be careful.

Common sense says that what normally costs $40-50,000 and up for a house isn't legally available or $200.00.

Good luck for trying to be energy conscious.

Go to www.DOE.gov,

Finally, go to http://search.aol.com/aol/search?query=home+solar+energy+packages&s_it=client_searchbox

Good Luck,
