    I was stunned at the lack of solar panels in Vegas. You would think offering shade and electricity at the same time would be a good idea in the desert.

      When I went not long ago, the nearby desert had lots of solar. There was actually a fight about putting more solar, and the utility thought they compromised by putting it up on a mesa, but people griped that it would look bad for skydivers…

        In the city there is little. You’d think with all the ac people would invest in anything to make bills cheaper in summer.
