My modest rooftop solar system (no battery) puts more kWh into the grid than it takes out over a year, but I pay much more for what I take out than what I put in. Thanks Chris Bowen!

Outsider (Australian) looking in: is the literacy problem getting worse with time? There has been a lot of comment about the 'dumbing-down' of America over recent decades. Is it deliberate, intended to produce a class of people who are limited to receiving information and opinions from TV only?

There'd be plenty of ghosts in there for him to talk to, possibly even a couple of distant relatives to share stories with...๐คฃ๐ณ
Just contemplating #PrinceAndrew 's future...๐คช
If he was given an option to leave the country with, say, enough money to live modestly for the rest of his life, where might he go?
He has rellies in Greece, Germany and Russia - I don't think Greece or Germany would touch him, but Russia?
Thoughts?
What has the Bureau of Meteorology (Australia) done to its website? Slow, harder to find information than before, less data on a page, aaaargh!!!

California has a population slightly smaller than Canada, and significantly larger than Australia. Canada and Australia both have health care systems that make health care available to all at little or no cost. Keep going California, you could lead the US out of its current health-care disaster.
