I think its Doug Manchesters fault.[/quote]

LOL! Today I heard that Doug Manchester has ordered UT newsroom to “focus on positive aspects of San Diego” and “be the cheerleader for the city”!

You know what that means in terms of UT reporting in 2012 –

(a) Our housing has reached bottom, buy now or be priced out forever!
(b) YES on Chargers Stadium. Of course its going to pay for itself and generate so much money for the city such that it can close its budget deficit that it really does not have.
(c) YES for convention center. See (b)
(d) What potholes? Potholes are in the eyes of the beholder!

Good suggestions but realize that this topic was discussed in Jan-2009. Original poster is probably not reading this thread anymore and he is too rich to get any relief from SDGE (living in ~5000sf house and all) …

Quote from Jon Stewart:

“Ron Paul: The guy’s for Gay Marriage, Legalizing drugs, and against Military Spending. He’s criticized Ronald Reagan. He’s certainly capable of winning his party’s nomination, but the Republicans ain’t his party!”

Why do we take tax plans of presidential candidates seriously? Sure, Cain has one plan, Perry has another, Romney has third, Paul has fourth and heck Obama used to have one when he was a candidate too.

The fact is that all the tax-plans are the same as toilet paper to me. They are meaningless unless ratified by Congress and signed off by Supreme court. There is fat chance that any of these pie-in-the-sky schemes will ever get through congress. In fact the more radical the plan is, the less is its chance of passing.

So tax-plans are good for the presidential candidates themselves to get TV time, generate controversies and they serve as red meat for their passionate supporters, but to me, as a detached observer, they are just toilet paper!

Can someone educate me on why there is this drive to get popcorn ceilings removed? Why does everyone hate them? Aesthetics?

I know its a hijack, but how about just expanding the bus service?

Why do some people have this fetish with train lines? They take forever to build, almost never result into positive RoI and you have this problem of how to get to/from train station to where you need to go.

Buses on the other hand can go anywhere, do not need huge infrastructure build-out, can be expanded/updated in the direction of real demand, much cheaper to run and possibly do not have as negative RoI as the trains/trolley…

That is about $1.4/watt for a panel. Seems pretty good.

Prices for solar panels have crashed due to all the overcapacity and I have been reading that they will approach $1/watt price point, however that might be the wholesale rate.

How much does it cost to install and add inverters etc.? Those costs are supposed to be way more than the cost of the panels…
