History
Report
Contrary to popular opinion, all barns are not created rectangular and red. Wisconsin alone has approximately 200 round or "round-type" barns. Folk wisdom attaches superstition to the shape, claiming that the barns were built round so the devil could not find a corner to hide in.
Actually, they were modern technology at its finest, being cheaper to build than conventional barns because they used less material and being more resistant to strong winds because gusts were directed around the structure rather than buffeting against the walls.Round barns are a fine example of architecture in harmony with the rural landscape.

Solar
Report
There's enough solar energy hitting the Earth every hour to meet all of humanity's power needs for an entire year. To put the it into a different perspective, if we covered the Mojave Desert with solar arrays, it would generate more than twice as much electricity as the U.S. uses annually.
Depending on where you're looking at producing solar energy, it's probably already cheaper than coal, diesel, nuclear, and in most cases, natural gas, particularly in the Southern U.S.If the pattern of cost reductions is any indication, it won't be long before solar blows away every form of fossil fuel on a cost basis.
