Landis -- and you -- obviously have been seduced by the various better mousetraps coming along to try to make solar energy and other renewables more commercially viable.<br><br>As a portfolio manager, Landis invests in the companies that are developing these technologies because he believes they will provide strong long-run returns. Before buying shares in any of the companies he holds, you and other investors should study up, run the numbers and see if you reach the same conclusion.<br> Tue, 17 Nov 2009 18:24:11 GMT http://moneywatch.bnet.com/investing/blog/against-grain/finding-growth-and-value-in-alternative-energy-and-alternative-tech/320/#18711_91031 2009-11-17T18:24:11Z http://moneywatch.bnet.com/investing/blog/against-grain/finding-growth-and-value-in-alternative-energy-and-alternative-tech/320/#18711_90663 The United States Southwest (New Mexico, Arizonia, Nevada and California) is excellent for solar power having deserts which are flat and cloudless most of the year. Your right if the solar cell are made more efficent, this could be a potential source for meeting some of our energy needs. <br>Another mechanism for solar power is using reflectors to capture solar energy and transforming it into electricity. Such as directing solar reflection to towers where it is captured as heat and provides energy for electricity producing turbines; some of the heat could be stored for producing electricity during the night. Solar cells do not have the capacity for night electricity. <br>Other reflectors such as reflective troughs are being explored for converting solar into heat which could be converted into electricity. You seem to have neglected this emerging technology.

Here's what I said recently on the subject:<br><br><a href="http://moneywatch.bnet.com/investing/blog/against-grain/awful-week-for-stocks-may-be-just-the-beginning/311/?tag=col1;newer-post" target="_blank">http://moneywatch.bnet.com/investing/blog/against-grain/awful-week-for-stocks-may-be-just-the-beginning/311/?tag=col1;newer-post</a><br> Sat, 31 Oct 2009 01:22:01 GMT http://moneywatch.bnet.com/investing/blog/against-grain/grantham-after-forecasting-rally-warns-that-a-reversal-is-approaching/309/#18114_88206 2009-10-31T01:22:01Z http://moneywatch.bnet.com/investing/blog/against-grain/grantham-after-forecasting-rally-warns-that-a-reversal-is-approaching/309/#18114_87643 This is right on.

We are postponed until the end of the year. We will keep seeing the SPY & QQQQ growing or at least not moving down until the fund managers may record huge profits for the year in their books. It will come though!

It points out the fact that we have extreme <br>bullishness at this time in the market.<br><br>One way to figure out the right time to sell is by watching <br>market timing signals.

I wouldn't worry about prices going up -- the cost of living has fallen 4% in the last year.<br> Sat, 24 Oct 2009 01:15:07 GMT http://moneywatch.bnet.com/investing/blog/against-grain/correction-has-been-postponed-not-canceled/307/#17822_86834 2009-10-24T01:15:07Z http://moneywatch.bnet.com/investing/blog/against-grain/correction-has-been-postponed-not-canceled/307/#17822_86297 One of the more pressing concerns I have is that the big jar of quarters I have in my office, it has maybe about $90 in it, will not even get me a slice of bologna in a few years due to dollar devaluation. <br><br>When imports are insanely expensive, and domestic products are all we have, this will have consequences.

I was saying it's in our present. My second piece noted that consumer prices are falling at a pace not seen at least since the days of Ike and the hula-hoop. Money supply, to which you referred, has experienced much slower growth lately and even gone negative -- as the Fed was printing all those dollars. People who use money creation as a rationale for predicting inflaiton often forget about all the money that has vanished into thin air through debt write-offs and reduced values on real estate and stocks. You can't factor one side of the ledger in and ignore the other.<br> Mon, 12 Oct 2009 19:52:23 GMT http://moneywatch.bnet.com/investing/blog/against-grain/dollar-bears-beware-it-could-be-almighty-again-soon/298/#17333_84518 2009-10-12T19:52:23Z
