### The standard answer from our enemies, the environmentalists, is
"unicorn farts".

BTW, elsewhere you wrote that we would need to cover the area of Arizona to
supply US electricity needs. That sounds suspiciously huge. The estimate I

If we ever defeat our enemies, solar power might become huge in the US.
