Utility Costs?

Posted By Darian Rachal

Eugene and Mark, Thanks for the feedback. .085/kwh is what I'd expect in an area like Denver.

You'd think those solar panels would drop in price. Those things have been around awhile. smile

Insect in the carport

Posted By Darian Rachal

David, My guess is that it belongs to Hemiptera. It seems to have true bettle characteristics, but that was my first impression when I saw the photo. I'm pretty sure it's not a scorpion fly. I've seen them in swampy areas and I do not recall them looking like this.

Who built this scope

Posted By Darian Rachal

David, I am only guessing, but I know that back in the early 70's Sears sold refractors with a similar color scheme.

Speaking of alligators, they are very tasty if prepared properly. I understand that "blackened" alligator is very good. smile
