Very Cool, Doug!  Thanks for the status report.

I remember your post from last year.  I didn't realize at the time that 
PV systems had gotten efficient enough to be viable.  I've been doing 
some research on them since.  A house with a PV system and geothermal 
heat pump would be a really kick-ass setup.

I'm not a hard-core greenie, but as someone with an engineering 
background I really appreciate efficiency.
