Paul’s Writing
One of the many things I do to still the voices in my head (technically, the voices are in Melinda’s head, but as long as SOMEBODY shuts up, it’s a good day!) is to write fiction.

Cincinnati Zoo: Solar Screw Up!
The Cinci Zoo, “the Greenest Zoo in America”, installed a canopy of 6,400 solar panels to reduce their $700,000 electric bill by 20%. 20% of $700k is $140,000. The solar panel project cost $11 million. That’s right. Eleven. Million. Dollars. They won’t break even for 78.5 years. Does anyone but me think this doesn’t add up? And here is the funniest part: They’re proud of this achievement.
