Google uses lots of power, therefore they become a power company. No mystery here, as others have mentioned.

@Hobolicious: I get your point, but 1.6 Megawatts of solar power is not small beans to anyone else except for Google. That's gotta rank up there in single location solar farm size, although that's just based on my limited knowledge of solar farms around the world.

@iheartpie: The reason for lack of investment is that you can't beat gasoline for energy storage density per dollar. Once gas goes over 10 dollars a gallon in the US (or New York City is under water) we'll start taking second looks at other technologies.

This is a stupid idea if the inventor has any intention of commercializing it. If not, then I applaud the attempt.

@tatiana.noel: I got by great on Goldeneye with just the single thumbstick with the trigger button ("z button") switching you to the "other" thumbstick. It wouldn't have worked without the auto-levelling crosshair when not using the trigger button. Regardless, I did brush off Goldeneye a few months ago and the game…

@ostartero: Metroid Prime was the reason I had a Gamecube. Agree completely. Have you played the original Metroids? Just as much fun, if not more.

I just bought this 2 days ago. It has great everything except for any innovation in the 1st person shooter department. Goldeneye has more innovation than NOVA and it's over 10 years old. Then again, Goldeneye cost $50 at the time.

@bnetter12: Bone up on your viedo game system monikers

Gasoline is an energy source all on its own. The energy that you are buying to go into this car comes from somewhere. What is the impact of that energy source on the environment? If you are in China then it's coal, and that's not great.
