2. Wow - somebody already unrecommended this?

Do they hate Amy, do they hate solar energy, or do they hate Vermont?
:rofl:

3. Note sure, but I happen to love all three.

I've enjoyed listening to and reading Amy for years. Solar is the future of energy. Vermont is beautiful and produces great cheese.

4. Oh really? Another one of those "drive to" solar fests that each consume

as much energy in gasoline as solar energy produces in a year?

How charming! A bunch of bourgeois brats consume in one little drive fest as much energy as solar produces in an entire year.

How much you wanna bet that on their environmental cook out, zero of them use swell solar ovens and the rest use propane grills?

5. Well that answers my question!

You hate Amy, you hate solar energy, and you hate Vermont!
